White House Counsel Harriet Miers May Be Bush's Boo-Boo

I must admit that I am more than a little skeptical of President Bush's nomination today of White House counsel Harriet Ellan Miers for associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States.

I heard earlier today that she had contributed to Al Gore's campaign for president in 1988. Contributing to a Democratic presidential campaign is one thing, but contributing to Al Gore's campaign shows a lack of sound judgment.

Then I see Senate majority leader Harry Reid on the telly saying how much he likes Ms. Miers and I almost want to puke. Come to find out, Harry actually suggested Ms. Miers as a potential nominee to Bush.

What gives here?
