Powell wants only far left judges appointed I guess. Does he think 0bama will appoint moderates? That’s a laugh. He will only appoint judges who are pro abortion, crime coddlers, and of course pro quota.
If we are lucky the balance on the Supreme Court might not change that much in 4 years. Stevens is pushing 90. Ginsburg has had cancer and I know she nods off at hearings. If the 2 of them should go and be replaced by other far left liberals it is the status quo. We have to pray that Roberts, Alito, Thomas, and Scalia remain in good health. I think the latter is 72 though. Not that young. Kennedy also is in his early 70s. I guess we are better off with him than someone who is sure to vote the wrong way every time.
Just maybe if 0bama is defeated in 4 years, then his successor could be the one replacing the wretched Justice Souter, or Kennedy, Breyer and some of the others.

That’s the only good thing going for us on SCOTUS, that the conservatives are younger than the old fossil liberals. I do think Stevens, and Ginsburg retire in the next 4 years and a new cycle of liberals is in there.
It’s still a very bad thing - the Democrats have slowwalked so many judicial nominees it is practically a crisis in the lower courts. Democrat congress + Obama + polite/minority GOP = lots of liberal judges in the Federal courts.
And if that is what Powell thinks is a good thing about Obama, then he’s either clueless or a liberal or both.
