Souter had a hidden agenda from the get-go. Stevens seemed to start out closer to the middle, but eventually succumbed to the Beltway mentality.

The only relatively recent SCOTUS justice I can recall who turned out to be more conservative than originally thought (on SOME issues) was Whizzer White.

Whizzer, who appointed by JFK, seems to have remained what he was when he was appointed: a liberal Democrat as defined in 1960.

And even towards the end, he'd occasionally say or do something sane.
