The answer to your Or even a national popular vote for Justice every two years. Why not? Question can be summed up from a CA Supreme Court justice of yesteryear: Rose Bird.

Popular election of justices is soooo dangerous! Can you say Obama?

Bird was not elected by the people of California. She was appointed by Moonbeam, as CA justices are appointed by governors. She WAS removed by the voters in the confirmation process. CA justices face re- confirmation by the people every 10 years, which is one of the very few smart ideas in CA government.
