Did Wurmser "flip" because of the Mier's appointment that the neocons
seem to be upset over? You know the neocons don't give a damn about the abortion issue, they give a damn about their agenda but they use the abortion issue to garner support from the religious right in this country. They know that Miers can't be trusted to understand the neocon-PNAC agenda and rule in ways that will ensure all power to the corporations and US imperalism. They wanted the Supreme Court to be locked tight so that when the issues of control of US government by outside forces comes up, US breaking of international laws, banking rules and other stuff comes up that is a hidden part of the neocon agenda they get the right rulings from the Court. Miers is an unknown and not intellectually light so they can't trust her. I think there will be a lot of "flipping" as the neocons turn against the stupid Bushcos and begin an all out effort to elect staunch PNACers to our government.

1. Probably to save his own a**!

That's the reason MOST people turn. You know, you're a nice guy and all, but if it comes to you or me??? Well, guess what...you're IT!

3. In my experience
most people that flip do so to save their own ass.

4. You do have to wonder. They use the abortion issue (legit issue for
people to feel deeply, deeply about) as a wedge. If a Myers overturns it - then they loose that wedge in federal elections - as abortion will become a "state issue".

You really have to wonder.

Harriet Miers is the poster child for how neocons run elections... and they hate her... shows you just how removed they really are from the base they use again & again & again. They went xtian, anti reproductive rights, dumbed down, crony,...but they didn't expect to have to work with such people on the high court.
