I'm not trying to name-call, I'm trying to find a shorthand which would be acceptable to refer to the people who are on the side which wants Miers to withdraw, so I don't have to say "the people who want Miers to withdraw".

Is that too much to ask? I've tried several names that I didn't think would offend "the side who want Miers to withdraw", but so far have been unsuccessful. So I asked for a suggestion from you. Why did you think I wanted to call you names?

I'm with you, waiting for some indication of judicial philosophy. Probably have to wait for the hearings, I doubt anything that comes out now will be acceptable.

This is however the normal time at which for a "normal" nomination we would start getting into the meat of her philosophy -- the 1st two weeks are usually for biography.

So maybe some tidbits will come out.

In the meantime, if you are really interested in an analysis of her legal and intellectual qualifications, I suggest you pop over to BeldarBlog, he's got a full collection there and he knows the law so he can actually comment on it.

I've been referring to myself as "the dark side." It limits the label to the Miers matter, and injects a bit of levity here at FR, which is sorely needed.
