Melanie Kirkpatrick of The Wall Street Journal editorial board says it well:

The president's supporters are under no obligation to support his selection of Ms. Miers for the Supreme Court. But surely conservatives owe him a chance to make the case that his nominee is who he says she is, and to listen to her Senate testimony before making a final decision about whether to oppose her.

I feel that the whole Harriet Miers negativity, needs to stop, just start the Senate hearings, ask her a few questions, get the answers, then vote.

Yeah, and to all you conservatives out there...

Wasn't it just yesterday, you were claiming that the President gets to appoint whomever he wants and the nominee has a Constitutional right to an vote? According to your earlier standards, calling for the nominee to withdraw her nomination is unconstitutional.

Of course that would be a principled stand, and the upperdown gang doesn't doesn't do priniciples.

Upperdown, upperdown, upperdown, upperdown...
