The supposed inside skinney, delivered by Pukin Dog is out of a list containing the names of 5 women (only women were considered in the final cut), 3 women asked to be taken off the list, 1 was disqualified (backgound check?), and the only one left standing was Miers.

I can't really blame someone for not wanting to go through this. By definition, the conservative judicial candidates commonly discussed as the best candidates are honorable people. How could they tolerate a blowhard like Kennedy accusing them being extreme? A man who in a just and honorable world would have been sentenced to the death penalty for his crime. I couldn't tolerate being grilled by a bunch of unhonorable hypocrites, and that covers about everyone on the committee.
