To Lowery, Frum, Fund, NRO, and all the whiners, please get this straight: Miers' nomination will NOT be withdrawn, and she WILL be approved. Now chew on that.

I find it hard to disagree on your first prediction.

As for the second - time will tell.

I agree, and if I'm wrong on her, I will repent in sackcloth and ashes. Somehow, however, I don't think the Miers critics will ever do the same if she pans out.

I well remember the criticisms of Thomas as a "lightweight" and an "affirmative action" appointment, and how GHW Bush "passed over" many more-qualified candidates.
