End of a Political Disaster: Miers Withdraws from Supreme Court Consideration

Harriet Miers has withdrawn her name from consideration for the Supreme Court vacancy. It's the best possible end to this disaster of a nomination.

Now is not the time for an unknown variable to be introduced into the Supreme Court mix.

There needs to be a conservative choice who will read the Constitution as it is and not legislate from the bench. Too much is at stake for a huge gamble on a person who has no experience as a judge.

This is President Bush's fault, not the nominee's. What on earth was he thinking?

Hopefully Miers will return to Bush's side as his counsel, where her proven record as an attorney will best be put to good use.
