We had a chance to possibly get a moderate (we don't know what she was), now we're certain to get an extremist. We might have replaced a right leaning moderate with a right leaning moderate. Instead we will be replacing a right leaning moderate with a hard right extremist and the next opening on the supreme court is likely to be replacing a liberal. If the republicans still control the Senate after 2006 bushes legacy could be 6 to 3 conservative court. Miers may have helped us to maintain the balance.
This was at best a draw but more likely a loss. Anne Coulter and Rush Limbaugh consider this a win too.
