I'm not surprised she withdrew. The president never should have nominated her. The Senate Judiciary Committee would have had her for breakfast, and she doesn't deserve that.
Now, hopefully, Bush will appoint a true conservative judge with a history to back up his conservatism. There will be a big fight, no doubt, in the senate over his/her nomination, but this time the conservatives will prevail. The U. S. Supreme Court will be turning to the right, folks, no doubt about it.
