Justice Souter is over qualified for federal employee retirement benefits. If you're 62 or older, you have to have been employed for five years or more for full benefits. (Older members of the board should take note of this - might be good to pick up this in between hops to the Bahamas..)
He's far over the five years, and far beyond the 62 year age.
If that's true, than Viet Denh would be the ideal candidate. Of course, Michael Luttig would be an excellent judge, but Denh might be more confirmable.
