Your sentiments are shared by millions. What the Miers defenders fail to realize, is that even if they're right they lose. They just don't get it. You defeat and humiliate the Miers opponents, you defeat yourself. It's a complete mystery to me, how any conservative would think Miers (who no one even really knows) is worth fracturing the coalition, sowing animosity in the ranks and alienating millions of your strongest supporters...all this for the possibility she might be alright. My God, if you're going to go to war with the base, make it over someone who has earned the reason for the loss and sacrifice. Not somebody who Drudge has to flash an alert that they voted for Reagan in '84.
The WH is acting arrogant. I think some true colors are beginning to show.
