After hearing a pair of former Texas Supreme Court Justices on Fox this morning repeat the same talking points, it occurred to me that they were setting the groundwork for a replacement nominee.
Sally Ride is:
1) ” . . . a pioneer. . .”
2) “. . . intelligent . . .”
3) “. . . thoughtful . . .”
And, while Miers has “real world experience” (one Texas justice repeated that boast three times in two minutes), Sally Ride has real out-of-this-world experience!

And since many of us here are pro-non-laywer Ponnuru for Scotus….
