I have been scared to death of the supreme court nominations coming up in the next 4 years. But, after reading this, something in my mind clicked. If hillary is elected, and replaces the 2 flaming libs with flaming libs, the court balance will still tilt left, but not as much as in the past. My question is, does anyone know the condition of the 4 conservatives and 1 slightly tilted right judge? If they are healthy and not considering retirement for at least 4 years, I just may join you in the revolution...

Your post made me think also. How's this -

John G. Roberts, Jr., born in Buffalo, New York, January 27, 1955 – he is 52.

John Paul Stevens, born in Chicago, Illinois, April 20, 1920 – he is 87.

Antonin Scalia, born in Trenton, New Jersey, March 11, 1936 – he is 71.

Anthony M. Kennedy, born in Sacramento, California, July 23, 1936 – he is 71.

David Hackett Souter, born in Melrose, Massachusetts, September 17, 1939 – he is 68.

Clarence Thomas, born in the Pin Point community of Georgia near Savannah June 23, 1948 – he is 59.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg, born in Brooklyn, New York, March 15, 1933 – she is 74

Stephen G. Breyer, born in San Francisco, California, August 15, 1938 – he is 69.

Samuel Anthony Alito, Jr., born in Trenton, New Jersey, April 1, 1950 – he is 57.

Relatively speaking, our guys are pretty young. Does Justice Scalia have any health issues? I like your premise and will use it.
