Arlen Specter says the Miers nomination isn’t in any real trouble, though “she might need a crash course in constitutional law” before her senate hearings, which someone (sorry, can’t remember where I read it) mused is a little like saying the first baseman for your corporate softballl team “needs some time in the batting cages” before stepping up to the plate for the Yankees.

I picture Harriet Miers burning the midnight oil at the library with her Emmanuel Con Law outline all dog-eared up, a cup of Water Joe and a pack of smokes close at hand. “Sorry Senator, only had time to read every other page. Not really sure about the privileges and immunities stuff. Besides, I’m only here pass/fail.”

Hey, Harriet, lemme’ help you out. I got hold of a killer outline from this 2L who’s wicked smart. I mean, he graded onto Law Review and everything. It’ll totally get you through the hearings. Twenty bucks, and it’s yours.
