Miers Withdraws Under Mounting Criticism - Yahoo! News: "The White House said Miers had withdrawn because of senators' demands to see internal documents related to her role as counsel to the president. But politics played a larger role: Bush's conservative backers had doubts about her ideological purity, and Democrats had little incentive to help the nominee or the embattled GOP president."

Finally! I can't believe Bush would nominate such an unknown regardless of her personal views.
