Harriet Miers should withdraw!

Since she was nominated I have been willing to give George Bush the benefit of the doubt on the Harriet Miers nomination to the US Supreme Court. I now believe she should "fall on her sword" and ask to have Bush withdraw her nomination. I love fighting liberals but I hate fighting fellow conservatives. She has split the Republican base and can only do damage to it. Even if she turns out to be everything the conservatives want on the court, that will take years to find out, and in the meantime she will cost the Republican Party votes. She must go for the good of the party. Click on the title above for Peggy Noonan's column on the subject.
