Conservatives on the court are reluctant to leave, fearing it would result in a left-leaning bench. But if Bush can get his appointees confirmed by the Senate, they might feel comfortable in stepping down. This would push the High Court even further to the right.

How does it push SCOTUS "even farther to the right" (as if it were already right) if conservative justices retire and are replaced with conservative justices?? Besides, I'm not so sure Bush would nominate people I would consider conservative.

Who's an example of a justice you consider conservative, and who among his judicial appointees so far do you consider not conservative?
