So why is it important that Roberts is married with two kids? Why did Bush and Roberts constantly refer to young, boisterous Jack? Answer: Because it softened and normalized Roberts.
Many people that I know will feel or fear that Miers doesn't understand their lives because she never married and has no kids. That's just life.
Americans, especially the vast majority of conservatives, want people in these positions to be married with kids. That's life.
To attempt to refute that point is fruitless. It's like saying Despite Americans preference for electing tall Presidents, Robert Reich is a lock for '08.

You are so narrow-minded you actually believe that most Americans believe as you do in this matter. You have nothing but anecdotal evidence to support that, but you think that, by saying over and over that everybody who sits as a judge or serves as a politician has to be married, that that will make it so.
It doesn't, and you are completely ill-informed.
But, your empty-headedness is typical when you jump into an argument, so no surprise there.
