The Court will just have a headache replaced by an upset stomach.
The way I look at it, the more loony radical left the replacement, the more it will nudge Justice Kennedy to the right.
IMO, that's the best scenario we can hope for.

If he waits he would be replaced by a constitutionalist. HEAVEN FORBID THAT HAPPENS!

I understand he's staying in D.C. though. He doesn't want to leave his boyfriend's behind. LOL...I hear he's very attached to his boyfriend's behind.

John Paul Stevens saw how the upcoming election was going and quit while the ‘Rats still had a large majority in the Senate.
The only question is whether Obama will play it safe and choose someone conventional or will he choose an open Marxist-Globalist?

Maybe Stevens thinks he won’t make it that long? He is old.

LA Times: “The retiring Supreme Court justice started out as a conservative in 1975, but as he saw it, the court shifted right as he held to the center.”
Barf. Stevens is as deluded as Jerry Ford who defended the pick till the day he died.
I believe he’s still officially a DIABLO “Republican”.

Conservative? Not really. When Stevens was first appointed to the Supreme Court, his rulings were very similar to those of Lewis Powell. He started moving to the left in the mid 1980’s.

Yes, he was described as the “swing vote” during the 1970’s and 1980’s.
