It really doesn't matter if she is the most qualified...

This is Bush's choice...

He's the Pres. nowhere does it say he must pick the "most qualified".

I'll reserve my final judgement on whether she is "even qualified" until the confirmation hearings...My bet is that she will prove to be more than qualified, but we won't know until we see how she holds up to Congressional scrutiny.

If she looks like a legal genious in comparison to the Senators who question her, and who make every attempt to casually dismiss her and her qualifications, then she's more than qualified.

If will be fun to see how the Senators respond to this "unknown". Will they go out on a limb and directly attack her, or will they play it safe and only imply that she is a poor chice in an indirect way that will satisfy their constituents while they rubber stamp her nomination.

I think she'll proably fly through the hearings.
