I feel like I'm riding on the crest of a tsunami, which will hit the White House some time tomorrow.
Here's what I just posted on the other thread on this topic:
Okay, I've gone from optimistic to cautiously optimistic to cautiously pessimistic to flat out pessimistic over the last week or so. I guess you could now accurately label me as a former member of the Pro-Miers crowd. And, based on past experience, I would consider myself a pretty good bellwether of the views of the typical hardcore pro-life evangelical. Which means the last bastion of support for this nomination has just dried up. I expect Dobson to start backtracking as well, if he hasn't already.
You or anyone else can bust on me or rub it in or whatever, but I was willing to compromise on almost every other point to get a solidly pro-life Justice. But if Miers is not that, then there's nothing left.
Well, Rod Dreher is right. She is more libertarian than conservative.
