I think our president has tried to pick people that believes won't change ..... for whatever reason. I think his Dad is haunted by the souter nomination, and I think W is trying to avoid that.... and pick someone that can make it through the confirmation process... because the Dems are dug in for this one.
So the fact that she has no qualifications and record is more reliable and indicator of what she will do rather than a judge with a record? Right, I understand completely.

Yeah, Luttig or McConnell or even JRB could change on the Supreme Court -- but at least we have something more than "trust me" to go on for them. You know how they stand NOW on many Constitutional issues -- we don't know that about Ms. Miers at all. The fact that anyone is relying upon her religious credentials and a "trust me" to yield conservative judicial dividends is worrying.
