And you think Miers will sail through with 60 votes ? Why ? Her outstanding qualifications ?

No.

Because she is acceptable to the Gang of 14.

And they control the show.

As long as they hold, it will only take 51 votes, because they will prevent the Dems from filibustering.

You think they won't bail ? You think the Gang of 14 are evangelical Christians ? There is no good reason for them to support the Miers nomination.
