Does anyone now disagree with the conservatives who pushed hard to get Harriet Miers withdrawn?

Although I agree that Alito is a better candidate than Meiers, I will never agree with the tactics used to get Meiers to withdraw. Many conservative pundits lost my respect over their behavior last fall, and they will have a hard time regaining it.

Believe it or not, there are still a good number who remain bitter about that. Bwahahahahaha!!!!

I thought about Ms. Miers yesterday and realized that she would have been chewed up and spit out had the committee asked anything of her like they did of Alito. That said, however, she was nominated by the president and deserved to get her hearing.

Miers would have been roasted in this forum. Instead of this fine victory we are looking at we would have had an unmitigated disaster.

I never disagreed. It was necessary to let the president know that the we were willing to fight for a conservative and qualified nominee for the supreme court.
