From Bob Novak's Evans-Novak Political Report:

We are told that White House Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove called almost every conservative leader in Washington to allay their fears over Miers. To some, the scenario is all too familiar, hearkening back to the nomination of David Souter. As with the Roberts nomination, most conservative groups will probably keep their powder dry and avoid spending money to promote the candidate. Miers's future is still unclear, but unless Democrats decide that she is a stealth conservative and throw everything they have at her, she should be confirmed easily. If she is torpedoed, expect to see both Democrats and conservatives attack her qualifications for the post -- over which there is genuine doubt.
