Very interesting about creating a more conservative court for a short while. But since stare decisis only applies to liberal decisions, a temporary conservative court will change little.
We need three young conservatives and no stealth leftist if Bush gets three appointments. Imagine if G.H.W. Bush had appointed someone other than Souter?
Or someone other than Anthony Kennedy, a thin reed.
If the next President is Republican... every liberal on the court could be replaced by a conservative in our lifetime :)
*ahhhh* now I can sleep well tonight.
