Lotta folks not quite getting that point yet. Keep hammering ;-)
"People are opposing Miers not because of her politics, but because of her lack of qualifications. That's the exact opposite of politicizing the process."
I don't believe it for a second ... If Miers was a lock as a Thomas/Scalia vote, I would be 100% for her irrespective of her lack of judicial experience, and so would most of the conservative commentators. Her qualification only became an issue because it's the hammer the conservatives could use to undo this mistake.
Conservatives criticize her because she is an unknown who would likely NOT be a Thomas/Scalia clone. The fact is that the Bush White house is grasping for weak 'diversity' reasons for Miers that are truly irrelevent. It only heightens the suspicion that we have another O'Connor-type justice on our hands. My reason for wishing she'd get withdrawn is my knowledge that stealth GOP nominees are probably not good nominees. I cannot in good conscience call her less qualified than bad justices like Souter or previous bad ones like Blackmun.
