Who was the last conservative southern protestant to serve as a conservative southern protestant on the court??

It doesn't matter becuase it could not be more irrelevant. The Supreme Court is not a place where you put certain percentages of certain groups. Likewise, it would not matter if there were 9 Southern Protestant Whites on the Supreme Court as long as they all had real qualifications and mental acuity to handle being there.

Your argument is a Red Herring trying to get people to ignore the fact that Harriet Miers is not qualified to sit on the Supreme Court.
