Having said all that, I *don't* know a whole lot about Miers yet, and I'm looking forward to learning more. But from the information I've collected thus far, she's looking like a good choice.

Euh. Some good analysis over on Volokh.com.
The main objection I'm seeing and agreeing with (beyond the obvious 'we know nothing about her') is that she's never argued in front of the Supreme Court or had to really consider questions of Constitutional law. She a litigation attorney, which is really a different area of the law.
Well, clearly this appointment will help to bring the constitution back in line with current litigation, and put the rest of the amendments out of their misery.
