Do you want a fight or a borking or do you want a Justice that's going to be confirm able and on the Court fulfilling the promise Bush made? There is the "right" to die case and two abortion cases coming up. Bush wants Miers on the court by Thanksgiving. SHE then gets to decide instead of O'Connor. Miers knows the Constitution that's what she's been dealing with in the WH and Bush knows Miers.

You can bet that the Rats have a library on all of the possible conservative candidates and what they don't have they'll make up as with Thomas. Roberts made them look like the fools they are. Besides, there is the assumption that the other conservative candidates want to go through all the crap that Owens, Brown, Estrada, etc. We don't know how many privately declined.

Take a look at what's happening with Delay, Rove, Libby and now Freeh.

The least we can do is give Miers a hearing before blasting her and Bush. Miers could be Bush's best strategy yet.

Wait a minute! What everyone seems to forget is that with Bork and Thomas, at the time of their appointments, the DEMOCRATS controlled the senate. That is why Bork was kept off the bench, and if not for the strong backbone of Thomas, he too would not have been confirmed.

The REPUBLICANS control the senate at this time and could confirm Daffy Duck or a Harriet Miers if they so chose to grow a spine. The democrats can rant and rave all they want,(remember a former little man senator, Daschle or something?), all the democrats are doing are proving everyday with their latest outburst just how unworthy they are of leadership and their numbers will continue to dwindle over the next 20 years.

Bush should nominate whomever he wants and then let the pubbies nuke the dems. The gang of losers would melt like the WWofW if Frist made a stand.
