(Pritzker has worse baggage than Harriet Miers did and she could cause harm to your Presidency if more is found out about her than even you are aware of even with your vetting of her for SOC.)

Bush withdraws Miers nomination
The White House released a letter from Miers to Bush on Thursday requesting that her name be withdrawn, citing a dispute with the Senate over documents related to her White House service. Bush said he would reluctantly accept her choice.
WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- Responding to an increasingly bitter political fight in his own party, President Bush on Thursday withdrew Harriet Miers from consideration as Supreme Court justice, the first such action by any president in almost 40 years.
The withdrawal of the nomination of Miers to replace Sandra Day O'Connor on the nation's highest court follows a steady drumbeat of criticism of Miers from conservatives and lukewarm support for her from Senate Republicans.
The pressure is now on Bush from his conservative base to nominate someone with a strong judicial record. Miers had never been a judge, instead serving most of her career as a corporate lawyer.
Her record of defending companies like Microsoft MSFT +1.60% and SunGard Data Systems Inc. SDS -1.76% won her support from business stalwarts like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. But Bush's next nominee will almost certainly have to demonstrate a record on key social issues like abortion and affirmative action.
"I have been informed repeatedly that in lieu of records, I would be expected to testify about my service in the White House to demonstrate my experience and judicial philosophy," Miers wrote.
"While I believe that my lengthy career provides sufficient evidence for consideration of my nomination, I am convinced the efforts to obtain Executive Branch materials and information will continue," she wrote.

It will be too late then. But, it's probably already "too late."
