He should withdraw her nomination and pick a qualified judge (and there are dozens of qualified women judges if that's what he wants).

Better to take some humiliation now than more letter when Miers is voted down.

The Constitution is not some document that only a privileged class of persons can read and determine its meaning. We don't live in some sort of technocracy in which only those with specialized knowledge determine the scope of our laws. The Constitution is written in everyday language and there is no reason why non-judges and even non-lawyers should not sit on the USSC.
