Miers Withdraws Nomination

Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers has withdrawn her nomination. Brad over at Unrepentant Individual notified a mailing list, and the Washington Post just posted it on their web site 15 minutes ago (8:58 am).

This is a victory for meritocracy, and a defeat for cronyism.

Hopefully this means lawyers and other professionals throughout America will start working harder and kissing up less.
