I disagree. I don't know that the Miers nomination was an indication that Bush intentionally flouted the will of his base, but I have to believe he's definitely paying attention to it now. He's no dummy, and ironically enough, the very same Republican senators he may have feared would oppose a strict constructionist may now be convinced that it's in their best interests to support such a nominee.
Come on, W.. JRB!
Pretty please?
