Bizarre!

David Frum is on Hugh Hewitt's program explaining his tipping Miers as one of the possible picks. Why didn't he sound alarm? He was hoping that naming her would prejudice Bush against picking her, counting on his resistance to going with the pick the media think it will be.

Does that sound a little dishonest to you? Me too. Especially when you compare his first post about her with his second. The first was definitely favorable and hopeful. It certainly didn't presage the bitter denunciations that came boiling out when Bush actually nominated her.

Frum reportedly has raised $300,000 from a couple of dozen donors to run ads against Miers. That strikes me as very like PFAW and MoveOn.org, or George Soros. He's keeping his donors' names confidential because he claims that they've been threatened with political destruction. This is really, really getting dark and dank.
