If Potter Stewart were still alive, he would continue being the same thing he was during his 23-year tenure on the Court -- a very unpredictable swing vote.

If Hugo Black were still alive, on the other hand, his votes would be quite predictable. He would vote with the conservative side of the Court on issues such as abortion rights and gay rights, but he would have voted with the liberals on Bush v. Gore.
