"Replacement of Scalia, O’Connor and Ginsburg, is the key to the remedy..."

Gosh, I hope you meant Rehnquist instead of Scalia. I REALLY hope nothing is wrong with Scalia!

As the speech notes, it is a two-step process. I expect Scalia to be named to replace Rehnquist as Chief Justice. THEN, Scalia will need to be replaced as Associate Justice. Under the 220-year-old tradition, the Chief is confirmed separately from the Justices.
