My main problem with her is that she’s too young.

She's pushing 60. How is that possibly too young?

I do see one plus, however. If she isn’t that smart...

Well cross that plus off your list, because she is *very* smart.

She's 54, not pushing 60. In terms of Supreme Court justices, it's not Roberts or Thomas young, but it is young. Ginsburg, by comparison, was 60 when she was appointed. Breyer and Alito were also older when they were appointed. All things being equal, women live longer on average. So yes, I wish she were older.

She'll be 55 next month. That's the same age that Stevens was when Gerald Ford appointed him, and he's the current longest serving SCOTUS Justice.

Given that women live longer than men on the average, that gives her plenty of time to screw up our country even further.
