A 12-year term for SCOTUS would be a bonanza for the Democrats today:

Chief Justice Rehnquist (1986) would’ve been replaced by a Democrat appointee of Clinton’s in 1998 and in 2010 by Zero.

David Souter (1990) (RINO) while he would’ve been replaced by Dubya in 2002, Zero would’ve appointed the replacement in 2014 (and did, the seat is now Sotomayor’s).

Breyer (D) (app. 1994) would’ve ostensibly been 1 gain for the GOP in 2006, but depending upon this year’s election, could be tossed with a Pres. Hillary in 2018.

John Paul Stevens (ultraleft RINO-1976) would’ve similarly been Dem by now. Replaced in 1988 by a Republican, would’ve been displaced by a Dem in 2000 and reaffirmed as a Dem in 2012 (which it is now with Elena Kagan).

Anthony Kennedy (RINO-1988) would’ve been replaced by Clinton in 2000 and again reaffirmed by a Dem in 2012, so that’s another Dem gain.

Ruth “Buzzi” Ginsburg (D-1993), would’ve been replaced by an “R” in 2005, but pending next year, might be replaced by a D. So one gain for the GOP.

Sandra Day O’Connor (RINO-1981), would’ve been replaced by Clinton in 1993, by Dubya in 2005, and again, another potential loss by next year if Hillary wins (so Alito would be on his way out).

Antonin Scalia would’ve been out by 1998 (app. 1986) and his seat would’ve been in Dem hands for two terms in a row (2000 and 2012), an enormous loss.

Last, but not least is Clarence Thomas. He would’ve been out (though succeeded by another Republican) in 2003, but a Dem would’ve replaced them in 2015. Yet another loss.

In total under a 12-year system would result in a Democrat Chief Justice today with 5 Democrat Jurists and just 3 Republicans, hence a 6-3 Democrat (leftist) majority on SCOTUS. Just in time to rubber stamp Zero’s radical agenda across the board (including trampling the Second Amendment).
