Has her nomination been withdrawn yet?

I really do think the president should have wide latitude and congressional deference to pick appointments, even to the Supreme Court. But she just doesn't seem to meet any reasonable minimum standards. |

haha - Bush "reluctantly" accepts her request for her nomination to be withdrawn. Now that's funny. I think it's probably closer to "after intense pressure from Bush and his political handlers, Miers decided to allow Bush to save a bit of face."
All I can say is thank God. Roberts - even with little track record, obvious a brilliant man. Miers - I still have no idea what could have possessed Bush to make such a poor pick. NO ONE supported her - no lefties, no righties, not even most moderates. She was an attrocious and embarrassing pick, and I sure as hell hope he does a bit better with the next one. OK, there is no way he couldn't do better. |

So now I'm wondering if it's going to be one of the Browns (Janice Rogers Brown or Edith Brown Clement) or Gonzales.

I'm betting it's male. While I don't think gender should be requirement, it does annoy me that this will be used as "proof" that there weren't any qualified women.

What did you think of the Browns, listed by GC? I would have considered either of them qualified - certainly much more so than Miers. Hell - my 12 year old daughter might be more qualified than Miers, so I guess that isn't saying much.

You know, in one respect, this is a pity. We're missing a really great opportunity for a truly terrifying halloween mask.

Brown I (JR) has a resume closer to what I would expect -- experience in private practice and government, I believe a stint in academia, and experience as a judge. However, she's also noted for being more libertarian than conservative, and thus may not be to the GOP's liking. Brown II (E) also has a resume that would indicate she holds the type of experience necessary to qualify for the position - many years in private practice, followed by a number of years in the federal courts. Although she doesn't appear to have written many decisions, I would expect her to be more palatable to the GOP.
