Hm, your September 30 citation about Owen withdrawing has been ignored.

Probably so will my noting in post 204 evidence that Miers is not anti-Federalist Society as some (including the ever-shallow K-Lo at NRO) keep insisting.

While many of the Bush judicial nominees she has helped shepherd to confirmation are affiliated with the Federalist Society, Ms. Miers herself has been ambivalent about the influential conservative legal group. In 1990, she almost anticipated how much of a lightning rod the group would become to the left. She testified in a court case that she would not join the society because "it's better not to be involved in organizations that seem to color your view one way or the other for people who are examining you."
