More Opposition to Pres from Conservative Base

Leaders on right call for new pick

Here’s yet more erosion of the GOP base from support for the SCOTUS appointment of Harriet Miers.

Phyllis Schlafley, and Richard Viguerie both long-standing spear carriers for the conservative wing of the GOP, have joined with others in organizing a PAC group, WithdrawMiers.org, calling for a different nominee for the open SCOTUS seat, and acting as an opposition information clearinghouse.

I guess more and more conservative folks are discovering that in many cases “the Emperor has no clothes”, and that his domestic policies seem more like FDR than Ronald Reagan.
