There is still much to learn about Harriet E. Miers, but in naming her to the Supreme Court, President Bush revealed something about himself: that he has no appetite, at a time when he and his party are besieged by problems, for an all-out ideological fight.YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY WE WINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!
Looked at another way, the choice is much harder to explain. In selecting Ms. Miers, Mr. Bush stepped deeper into a political thicket that had already scratched up his well-tended image of competence....Who says hacks can't be poets?
