Don't mean to pour a bit of cold water on this argument, but if anyone thinks Ginsberg, Souter, etc are persuadeable (is that a word?), I've got some bad news. Won't happen.

Weren't Breyer and Stevens convinced to join onto the 7-2 portion of Bush v. Gore? Sometimes even the court liberals can be reached.

Breyer and Souter (writing separately) agreed with the per curiam holding that the Florida Court's recount scheme violated the Equal Protection Clause, but they dissented with respect to the remedy, believing that a constitutional recount could be fashioned.
