Miers as S.C. Justice

[berni_mccoy]

Time for an early gut-check

Will she make a bad s.c. justice, a good s.c. justice or is it too soon to tell how she will turn out as justice.

on edit: clarified question.

1. Good/Bad in what way?

Are you saying good as a justice, good for Bush, or good for Democrats? :shrug:

[Mass]

2. Nominated by Bush - How can it be good?

Best case scenario is that it is the one who will make the least damage.

4. We could have said the same thing about O'Connor

When Reagan nominated her... unfortunately, we don't have a choice. Bush has to nominate someone... and it sounds like he took advice from Reid!

[cry baby]

3. She thinks * is the most brilliant man she's ever met...

that alone makes her stoopid! But, that said, I like the fact that she is making the right wing fight with each other. And Limpballs doesn't like the pick! That alone makes my day.

5. It could be worse

It could have been someone like Janice Rogers Brown that would really do some crazy things.

6. Or Edith Jones

It really could have been a lot worse.

7. Bad, but it's just my gut. She's just like candidate * in 1999, and

she'll probably get a pass because she's another stealth nominee.
