Blogger poll
Truth Laid Bear is running a poll of bloggers regarding who supports or opposes Miers. He asks that specific wording be put in the blog so that he can do a search to keep track. So here goes,
I oppose the Miers nomination.
I encourage the other bloggers here to do the same thing (pro or anti). Sorry, S'saurus, there is no anti-anti-Miers option.

Are we registered w/ ecosystem? I don't see us in the results yet. We may only get one vote blog-wide.
I suspect that our blog will get only one vote.
We are registered, but they only update once a day. If our blog gets only one vote, then IT'S MINE. BWAHAAAHAAHAAAHAA!
Typical elitist.
My only comment is that I would not waste any of my time or energy fighting to confirm Harriet Miers.
At the same time, I think the anti-Miers crowd is spazzing out. It's embarrasing.
Again, the only really known reason to vote against Miers is that she has no record. Yet, Harsh Pencil below is claiming that she does have record (with regard to racial preferences). If you are willing to make this conclusion, than you should agree with my conclusion that Harriet Miers will be a hard core conservative vote on the court because to do otherwise means abandoning her life. Harriet Miers' entire personal social group is made up of conservatives. She has no kids to love her no matter what. She is not about to abandon her circle of friends at age 61 to become a liberal. Do you think liberals will want to start hanging out with Harriet...maybe all the pro life conservative christian liberals...
Just because you can't be fired from your job doesn't mean that you have the carte blanche option to switch sides. Having a job is only part of life.
Having a record is not a zero-one thing. She has a very slim record, and for what little it is, it is all troubling.
