More like if the next nominee does not pass the Roe v. Wade litmus test...they'll be ground into chum and thrown to the sharks just like Miers.

You might be right. I hope not. We'll soon see!

I really think the Pro-Miers crowd is confused. There were a small percentage of pro-life people who argued against Miers because they didn't feel she was pro-life ENOUGH. But I believe abortion was NOT the issue (nor SHOULD it be). If we get an originalist, we get someone who will overturn Roe - we're all happy - social conservatives, moderates AND Republicans. Do you have proof Miers was an originalist?

Simply being "pro-life" isn't enough for me to stand behind a nominee. Heck, hasn't SDO said she's pro-life?

It's not about abortion - it's about that lovely piece of paper we call the Constitution. And for FReepers on here reducing this to simply about abortion - you are playing RIGHT into the DAMN MSM's hands.

It's not about abortion! K?
