President Bush will not withdraw the nomination. But we need some real evidence that Miers is an originalist or she will have to be defeated.

I think people are making too much of this. Plenty of Supreme Court nominees have had to withdraw or been defeated because of lack of support within the President's party.

You're advocating ignoring the Constitution by forcing ideological votes for SCOTUS candidates? Is that a stated criteria for the Senate's advise and consent role?

Where would any real evidence come from? All there can be is assertion from Bush or from her. Bush has no evidence ... only anecdotal experience with her alleged past actions or statements which, in no way, point to how she will behave in future situations.

Bush wants her way too much. And I want to know the real reason why.
