Nonsense, Texas is a tough town and she it a tough cookie to be sure.
For a second, think about all the women around President Bush in his life and at the White House. His mom and wife are powerful women. The women of the White House have been powerful and that is the way Bush does things.
You have nothing to worry about.
You would have to be saying that after over a decade of having this woman working with him that he still doesn't know here. I doubt that, Bush sizes up people well IMO.
Let's just say I prefer the raw data on the individual, especially with the historic performance of Pubbie SCOTUS picks (50% conservative, 25% moderate, 25% liberal) and the leftward tilt exerted on most Justices once they reach the bench. What I've seen so far is not nearly enough to convince me that the trend has been busted (with Roberts taking the 1-in-2 conservative role); the best I can say is that it's more likely that Miers will be a moderate Justice than a liberal one.
