This would mean a makeup for 4 liberals, 1 moderate and 4 conservatives, correct?

Personally, I think the best makeup would be 1 hardcore liberal, 2 other liberals, 1 libertarian, 3 conservatives and 2 hardcore conservatives.

I think a nice makeup would be nine originalists, screw political affiliation. The Constitution says what it says.
