Has Obama succeeded in flipping the makeup of some courts since Reid nuked the filibuster?

Considering a Bush appointee supported by Rick Santorum overturned PA's same-sex marriage ban, this way of looking at the courts is a little superficial. Makes sense since we use the word "makeup." Cheesy

Well, there are always judges that betray their appointers' expectations. Remember what Eisenhower said about nominating Earl Warren? That doesn't mean the party of the President who nominated a judge isn't a good predictor of their views.
