econwizard: Prediction: Harriet Miers Will Be Confirmed

About Me

Location: Massachusetts, United States

My "I" is constantly changing (perhaps this is merely AD/HD): overdetermined nexus of cultural forces emanating from several continents: skeptical of all Truths and seeker of the truth: iconoclast by enculturation, brain chemistry, and, perhaps, choice: perpetually perplexed, particularly about why we exist/ as the manifestation of overdetermined forces whose existence (and nature) is not as solid (or simplistic) as we would like.

Prediction: Harriet Miers Will Be Confirmed

It's the first Monday in October and sorry to sound like a broken record, but unless Harriet Miers has something negative hidden in her past (that can be uncovered by a docile press or a slightly less docile Congress), then she will be confirmed to the Supreme Court and take over the seat vacated by Sandra Day O'Connor. As with John Roberts, I can see no compelling reason for any senator to vote against her (other than the usual political ones --- voting against Roberts was an exercise in exorcism, pols distancing themselves from any embarrasing decisions or opinions that might come from a Chief Justice Roberts). It looks like we will have a full Supreme Court soon.
