Good article, though clearly from a lefty point of view. For example:
Even on the Supreme Court there are justices who do not seem to shift much at all, let alone to the left. Judge Guido Calabresis hope, expressed in a 1991 New York Times op-ed, that then-nominee Clarence Thomas might one day stand up to the pack . . . and remind us all of what it is like to be poor and friendless and to be facing a hostile state, has, more than a decade later, yet to be realized.
In other words, Thomas is insufficiently sanctimonious and state-worshipping.

You make an excellent point about Thomas not switching left on the court, and I think the RATS themselves are the reason for it.
Until Bork and Thomas, the Republican nominated Judges were never put through the crap that the moonbats use now to block Judges.
The theory that Conservative Judges may drift left on the Court, was based on a time when they weren't treated like a P.O.S by the left in confirmation hearings.
The moonbats just don't understand why someone that they treat like crap, won't later love them and drift to their way of thinking.
The RATS fried their own bacon and don't even know it!
