Miers Withdrawal Was the Best Move

Harriet Miers withdrawal from her nomination to the Supreme Court was the best course of action possible for the Bush Administration, and the best course of action for the country.

It become evident that Miers was going to have a tough time being confirmed at this point. Too many questions and concerns piled up on both sides of the aisle for her to have a realistic chance to assume her seat.

Her withdrawal gives the Administration a chance at a much needed do-over. I hope that this time the President puts forth a nominee with impeccable credentials who, at the very least, appeals to the ideology of those people who ensured his election and re-election.
