I guess the loominng indictments made it too hot for Bush to continue supporting her. God help him if he tries to get a right wing tool for a replacement.

I don't think God can help him or the GOP right now.

He buckled down to the wingnuts. We've got to be careful with the next nominee. Can't let another Scalia pass as easily as Roberts did.

At least she's gone - what we get next may be worse, but this is a "victory," if only because criticism (from *both* sides) forced Bush to back down about something.

This makes me very very happy.

It says a lot that the liberal criticism of her was "how on earth is she qualified?" and the conservative one was, "how do we know she'll always be on our side!"
