No the Miers choice was not the best, but the self-proclaimed intellecutals of the right blew it all out of proportion, giving the dems and the MSM the sense that there was blood in the water. It really destroyed our united front. The NRO and its ilk won the battle but lost the war. Unfortunately the next nominee to the Supreme Court will have to be far more liberal than what Miers was perceived to be by the self-proclaimed keepers of the Reagan flame.

I am a conservative, and by your standards I would qualify as very conservative. However, you have to pick your battles. Unfortunately our side decided to battle with each other. Even in this the NRO crowd acts as if this is good for the Republicans - puts those not in lock step in their place. Unfortunately being in the minority makes it so that nothing we wanted gets done. The GWOT was too important to lose over a temper tantrum by the right.

Not neccessarily.

You knon't know me or my standards.....lol.The GWOT was too important to lose over a temper tantrum by the right.

The terror war will not be lost. It's just a matter of how many of our brave warriours and citizens must fall. I don't know these things, but I do hope that Americans will not ever have to quake in fear of nuc's on our soil...If we do I will lose a great deal of faith in our people.

I agree. I blame this squarely on the pundits who are supposedly on our side, who have complained and mocked Bush relentlessly since Katrina. Once they didn't stand with him on Katrina, the Rats smelled blood.

We then suffered through attacks on Meiers, the NSA security, Dubai ports, etc. Those creeps act like they are so smart, and they are nothing but worthless sideline carpers who don't contribute a thing to our side, but suck up money we could spend on other things instead of their books and magazines. To heck with them.

And because of this constant criticism, one-issue Republicans stayed home. There were even some who stayed home in Indiana because the Republican governor instituted Daylight Savings Time...real smart, huh?

Pfui. Anyone who comes on here blaming Bush supporters for this loss is a complete jerk, and that is YOU, Brian Baldwin!
