The Trouble with Harriet: Miers’s Blog and Dan’s Downfall

• She’s got some vocal critics: “she’s the first Supreme Court nominee whose eyeliner is thicker than her curriculum vitae.” [Luttig's Liar]
• Ryan Lizza notes that “loyalty to Bush trumped intellectual firepower,” and that she once signed a document advocating same-sex couples’ right to adopt. Hmmmm. [&c.]
• Give her this, she knows her daily political tip sheets: “The Note for call[ed] me a ‘a trailblazing, conservative, consensus-y, strict constructionist’ — and then I stopped reading! The Note is always TOO LONG!” [Harriet Miers's Blog]
• Frum hates her, no he doesn’t, yes he does, wait… Nasty comments by National Review neocon mysteriously removed. [Al Franken Show Blog]
• Miers totally responsible for Dan Rather’s downfall. [Attytood]
