What I find strange, is individuals ready to support someone who hasn't really been asked any questions at length about her history, her judgement, her "conversion", and so on.

What I am finding is that the some convservatives are coming out saying "I trust Bush," or "she has great, real world experience," "she has yada yada yada." And from other conservatives its "What!? she doesn't have a track history!!!" or "She is a convert, NO!!!" or "We were ROBBBED!!" "CRONYISM".

...and we haven't even started the process of hearings. All we've seen is her being paraded around to various senators and what not. Maybe what should be said or happening is "I trust Bush in naming a candidate, now its up to us conservatives to see if he did well by checking her out." Like Reagan said, "Trust, but verify."
Conservatism is not one man, i.e. Bush. Its a state of consciousness that needs to be protected, encouraged, and grown. Bush is our CEO, but we are the Board of Directors.
In a couple of years, God wiling, we will have another CEO.

The only reason that Miers will be confirmed is that the Senators know her personally for her work on the Roberts confirmation and other issues (WOT) where she has played a significant role.
