Miers was suggested by Senate dim leader Harry Reid;

And Reid knows he's driving us nuts by voicing his approval.

Miers contributed to Algore and Floyd Bentson;

Both Bentsen and Gore were Pro-life in 1987 when those donations were made.

Just food for thought.

The late Senator from Texas was Lloyd, not Floyd, Bentson, and he was a good man.

Texas Democrats are often more conservative than Republicans from other states, especially prior to 1990.

To my knowledge both long-term Senators Tower (R) and Bentsen (D) were abortion supporters.

Some more food for thought. Miers donated to the Dem Party at a time when Reagan was one of our most popular Presidents ever and who had won one of most decisive Presidential elections in 1984. Why would Miers contribute to Bentsen, Gore, and the DNC in 1987-88? Did she have a problem with Reagan's political philosophy and its continuation under Bush 41?
