It's more like 95% that she'll be withdrawn. Common sense tells you as much. The WH sorely "misunderestimated" the amount of passion that another "stealth candidate" would elicit from the conservative base, especially when that candidate comes highly recommended by Dingy Harry. The President doesn't need this kind of flack from his loyal troops, and the sooner that Miss Miers "voluntarily decides to withdraw", the better it will be for him. They are hemorrhaging right now. Just my opinion, I don't have any sources.

So, if she's not withdrawn, will you admit to not having any common sense?

Having talked to my senators office I can tell you there is far more pressure coming from Republicans to confirm Miers than for her to be withdrawn.

Are you joking? 95%?
George W. Bush would destroy his presidency if he withdrew (or caused to have withdrawn) Miers' nomination before she even got a chance to make her own case at the hearings. It won't happen, ever. 0% chance.

I don't know where Fund came up with the bad PCP he's smoking, but if he truly said what the original poster says he said, it's no wonder the guy has more or less dropped off the face of the earth the past couple of years. Well, okay, there was that kinky sex scandal, too....
