Miers' Nomination: Doomed?
At the very least, it's in serious trouble, and
this column by George Will is a hammer blow. What's impressive is the way that Will manages to slam both Miers and the President, beginning with the second graf:
"...There is no evidence that she is among the leading lights of American jurisprudence, or that she possesses talents commensurate with the Supreme Court's tasks. The president's 'argument' for her amounts to: Trust me. There is no reason to...."
Will's column shows not only right-wing dissatisfaction with Miers, but also conservatives' growing frustration with Bush...the cheerleading phase is history.
