UPDATE:
It really is amazing how controversial Meiers is with CONSERVATIVES! You would have thought Bush appointed a Ginsburg clone. Hewitt and Medved have been doing the Lord's work though. And Ken Masugi at the Local Liberty blog has some sensible things to say:
We have a better view of Bush’s ambition for Miers in Senator Cornyn’s defense of her, calling her a justice who would bring the “dangerously out of touch” court “back down to earth.” This means not just replacing one justice with another but altering the public perception of the court as well. Hence Meirs’ faith plays a political role. To tame the Court we need a combination of skills: Thomas’s originalism, Scalia’s rhetorical brilliance, Roberts’ legal skills, and now Miers’ practical experience, producing a plain reading of the Constitution.
