"Y'all are just being silly.

This president is a brick wall. That's that. Forget it. She goes to hearings, she does a mediocre job and the Senators then look to their own futures.

Here's what they see. There are some blue state Dem Senators who will say . . . if I don't support this moderate, I risk a right wing followup nominee. So 1 or 2 of those vote YES.

There are a handful of red state Dems who have to get re-elected. This is a zero risk way to build their pro-Bush credentials. Those few blue state Dems who vote Yes provide cover, and indeed these red state Dem senators provide cover for those above. A few of these vote Yes.

The hardcore right wing GOP red state senators look at this as a zero risk way to get Administration support for some pork spending in their states. They vote YES, especially if they are from the Gulf region.

The RINOs have the Dem votes above as cover for a YES vote, and with a YES vote they get Administration campaign support. It's not even a close call for them.

If she is even mediocre in the hearings, she's in. Expectations by the right wing have been set so very low they they have cut their own throats in this. She need be only basically competent to look for a genius.

But . . . if you're looking for a genius, look at Bush/Rove. Those guys are mind boggling in their genius."

To continue your predictions and time line:

Conservatives stay home in 2006. Dumbycrat Party takes control of both houses of Congress in a political bloodbath for the Republican Party.

Bush limps along for two more years as North Eastern Establishment Country Club Republicans take over the party and further infuriate the Conservative Base of the Republican Party by attacking them as "Radical Right Wing Religionists who are trying to turn this country into a theocracy.

Conservative Republicans stay home again for the 2008 elections as the Country Club set of the Republican Party cram John McCain or Rudy down the Conservative bases throats.

President GWB hands over the keys to the White house to President Elect Hillary Rodham Clinton on a blisteringly cold January 2009 Morning.

Led by a Conservative uprising and revolt against the startlingly leftward lurch of the United State of America, the Republicans are returned to power in both houses of congress after the 2010 elections.

Republicans continue to expand majorities in both houses of Congress after the 2012 elections and President Elect Micheal Savage takes the oath of office on a sunny day in January 2013.

Harriet Miers proves to be an embarrassment to Former President GWB with her unimpressive reasoning and opinion writing on the Supreme Court and announces her retirement to Crawford Texas in late 2014 where she lives out the rest of her days writing letters singing GWBs praises as the most awesome president ever.

Wishful thinking.

More likely, with Mier's vote, the Supreme Court rules that illegals can vote, otherwise we have taxation without representation. In a rush to pick up these new votes, the lurch to the left becomes an stampede, and the USA becomes a bankrupt third-world country.
