Are you beginning to see why many of us here have said she wasn't vetted properly?

Having the person who A) suggested you for the job and B) will replace you if you get the job handle the vetting process is not the way to handle it.

I was disappointed with Roberts as well, so I don't think it is the vetting. It has to do with the Gang of 14 and the perceived need for a stealth nominee. Of course, I don't know what really happened and what Cheney and Rove advised. Neither do I know Harriet Miers. That speech was bad, but does it reflect her now ? I prefer Luttig. I wish Bush had nominated him but he did not. I still trust the President's judgement until proven wrong. If he picked another Souter, his legacy goes like that of his father.
