WASHINGTON, Oct. 23 (UPI) -- Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan., said on "Fox News Sunday" he has seen no signs of the White House withdrawing Harriet Miers' nomination to the Supreme Court.
"A number of private commentators that have suggested this, and that's been well-reported in the media, but I haven't seen anything coming from the White House," said Brownback.
"What is difficult here is we had the questionnaire, it was incomplete, it was inadequate and many senators, both Republicans and Democrats, felt that way," said Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt. "I think that's sort of an unprecedented thing to have to send the questionnaire back."
Brownback has asked the White House to release some of Miers' work product from her five years there.
"Providing this type of information from the White House is almost a risk they assume when you nominate a candidate just from inside the White House," said Brownback.
"A lot of the things she worked in the White House are on their way up to the Supreme Court," said Brownback. "I think it's totally legitimate to say what did you work on; if that issue comes before the Supreme Court, what would you do?"
