A partisan election to a lifetime term of the Court would be a complete nightmare.

To the people saying the court elections would be too partisan, maybe it could be done in a way that on the ballots voters can't see which party the justices are affiliated with. Also, the Supreme Court appointments are already very partisan.

People would still know which party a judicial candidate is aligned with, based on their record and endorsements. Removing a D or R alone wouldn't make this any better.
