Oh Sh!ftt.
Okay, well what if they say "Congress set the number of justices for the court; it's a done deal and you can't change your mind."
I'm hoping that basic human nature comes into play; nobody voluntarily surrenders their power. Even the liberals are going to resent their influence diluted.
Ultimately they hold the keys to the clubhouse, and you know, the Constitution is a living, breathing document.
