9. didn't Kerry attempt a fillibuster on one of them?

Would we have been better off with Harriet Meiers, who was torpedoed by a right-left combination?

11. I didn't see a mention of that in your links

and Meiers might very well have been better. She was Reid's suggestion.

12. Yes it is - "GOP sets up showdown over Alito" mentions it...in the article

Miers is a full-fledged lying piece of shit Bushbot and that's enough for me to think she would be no better than any other right-winger on the court.
