Harriet is looking more and more that her want for this position is trumping the hurt she's doing to the man she's reportedly so loyal to.

Seems that way.

But she's a good bowler.

***

"You know, she's a very gracious and funny person," said Joshua B. Bolten, the director of the Office of Management and Budget whom Ms. Miers succeeded as deputy White House chief of staff in 2003. In the next breath, Mr. Bolten recalled relaxing with her at Camp David. "She is a very good bowler," he said. "For someone her size, she actually gets a lot of action out of the pins."

When did you ever think you'd hear that Harriet Miers "gets a lot of action"?

;-)

Not only is there almost no enthusiasm for her nomination, I have never seen as much outright hostility and even anger at an appointment from a president's own party.

This is Abe Fortas revisited.

Absolutely true. Indeed, with her slim background in constitutional issues, it surprises me that, at this time with all the other problems the WH is having, she could have been very loyal in allowing herself to be nominated. My view is that she's an extremely ambitious individual who latched on to a more powerful person, maximized the value of that relationship for he own gain, and now wants more than anything else to cash in, regardless of the welfare of her client. Once that individual gets on the Court there's no way to expect any loyalty to President Bush, any real integrity, or any consistent judicial philosophy.
