-"You have to assume that Scalia, Thomas, Kennedy, Roberts, or Alito will die or retire or be removed from office before you can assume that Obama gets to nominate a replacement for them."

No. Look at the link that I provided, and you'll see that I am actually talking about the 'other side' of the SCOTUS (i.e. Ginsburg, Bryer, etc..).

I’m sorry. If you gave the link indicating you meant one of the 4, then I agree with you. I believe one of those 4 just might retire. However, it won’t change the balance of the court.

That’s what was so critical about the last election when we presented milquetoast as our candidate. He gave up, wouldn’t fight, quit...whatever. He disengaged.

With JP Stevens as a possibility, we could have actually forged a 6-3 liberty conservative majority. But the GOP-e threw it or McCain was totally inept. I’d like to think we were smarter than that, but we weren’t.
