FOXNews.com - Politics - Miers Withdraws Nomination to Supreme Court

Before this nomination I suspected that the Bush administration would just throw up a crap nominee and allow the Democrats to fight it and win. Then he would throw up another nominee that would not be fought as hard because the fight was spent on the previous nominee and fighting the second one would just make the Democrats look like cranks.

I thought that the initial nominee would be extreme right wing so as to make the second nominee, who would still be pretty far right, look like a centrist. Who would have thought Bush would have chosen someone who was completely unqualified and then get attacked from the right for being too far left? It still serves the purpose of taking the fight out of the next nominee.
