Since I hadn't fully made up my mind about Miers, I've neither a sigh of relief nor a sigh of irritation over this news.  Maybe my feelings are mixed because on the one hand I want this nomination process over and resulting in an appointment of the right person.  On the other hand, if it takes months to get the right person appointed, so be it.

Who is the “right person” for the job?  I don't know.  I do know that I'm sick of judges making law from the bench.

Conservatives, Moderates, Liberals....none really seemed to collectively back Miers.  Kind of makes you wonder if all “agendas” were stripped away, maybe a really good candidate just withdrew?  We'll never know of course.
