SCOTUS nominee

High Court Nominee Miers Has Never Been a Judge
---
The conservative bloggers are not happy

Ken Mehlman and RNC say Harriet Miers is another Sandra Day O'Connor

I think Markos is right

Like most people, I know nothing about Miers other than what has been in the news this morning, but this looks like it could be an interesting choice.
No less than Harry Reid recommended her, so that's a good sign. Apparently, she is also pro-choice, which is a godsend for any sane human being. (UPDATE - apparently, i was wrong about this!) And she is pissing off the ultra-conservatives, which must mean that she's done something right!
On the other hand, she is another bush crony and so she could be involved in any amount of corruption and decay!
We'll see how things play out and see what, if anything, we learn about her (and how much is covered up by the administration). But hopefully people are correct in saying that this is actually a display of how weak the administration currently is and she is actually going to be a fair and moderate judge.
We shall see....
