Sadly, Constitutional Law isn't an easy crib job, and Harriet was having a tough time learning on the fly...Spector sent her a list of questions that read like a nasty exam, then insulted her and demanded that she answer more questions. She would have been utterly humiliated at the hearings, and thank God she's been spared that. The President let his heart rule his head with her nomination. Rush mentioned yesterday that on the CBS website, paranoia was rampant, they were saying Bush-the-poker-player had done it again, that Harriet wasn't his 'real' pick and that she'd been nominated to draw Lib fire. The next one is the real pick.

As they say, the proof is in the pudding.
