Miers.. Constitutionalist?

Krusher, the part of your post about Hillary seems outrageously unbelieveable to me.   I'm no fan of Hillary, but I know people raise a stink at whatever she does - be it her actions as a control freak First Lady or running for Senator from a State in which she hadn't lived.   She just rarely fails to draw criticism.

Who mentioned her as a candidate for SCOTUS and when was it, do you recall?

Actually I think had Perot Not gotten in. the out,then back in the race again he stood a good chance of winning.
And it was that more then anything that cost him the election.

I voted Perot. He just made the most sense to me. and I wanted to do my part to send a message that the current candidates in my view were unacceptable.

When Clinton was elected to his first termI turned to my wife and said these exact words.
"Mark my words. Before this man is out of office he will be impeached"

A prophecy that later played out ,though not for reasons I would have suspected at the time.

Well she wasnt nominated first of all and she cant move without the right throwing punches.

last year when Kerry was running for president more than one source mentioned Hillary as a potential SCJ. That being said, my post was more concerned with their head to head legal credentials.
