It says a lot when a nominee can't even answer constitutional law questions accurately at first bat. This is something every first year law school student knows. How an experienced lawyer with thirty years of practice behind her doesn't... well, I'm stunned speechless. This has never happened before in the history of court nominations. Every day we find out something new about Miers and every revelation damns her with faint praise. In other words, nothing to write home about.

I'd rather have a brilliant mind that voted "correctly" 80% of the time than a dim bulb that was 100% correct (not that I have any reason to believe that Harriet would bat more than .400).
