"You were indeed qualified to be a member of SCOTUS."

To say that someone is qualified is not to say that they were the best choice for the job. Harriet Miers was far from the best choice for the job.

Harriet Miers is another symbol of the split in the GOP.

Cultural conservatives were stridently opposed, while others thought that she would better on non-cultural issues such as federal regulation.
