Adding justices is iffy. Add three more solid conservatives and one or two of them will lean left then fall left. Add a female solid and she will almost certainly lean left or follow whatever the Chief Justice does. Maggie Thatcher was a solitary. Women ultimately want all the children to play nice.
Yeah. Reagan thought he was doing the right thing with Sandra Day O’Connor.
If the women don’t come in as lefties, they seem to “fall left” eventually, as you say. I’m sick of women in politics.
