One thing you can say about Stevens (as well as Souter) in that he was a traitor to the end. He could have retired while a Republican was in office since he was appointed by a Republican, but he wanted to make sure the Marxists kept his seat.
I wanted him to last at least until we had a better chance to get a better candidate with more GOP Senators in 2011. Maybe the GOP will have the balls to filibuster until then.

The nominee will be confirmed before the fall session of the court. The task for the GOP is to make the public aware how ideologically alien the person is.
