Probably Kennedy; he's the only one who is not on party lines, at least not as much as the others.

LOL, he voted to appoint Bush President.

Roberts. He strikes me as far more willing to decide cases on their merits rather than whatever outcome he wants to see than anyone else on the bench.

Sure, it's just a coincidence that he gutted the VRA that he worked to try to defeat in 1982 in the pro-apartheid Reagan administration.

Justice Sotomayor has far exceeded my expectations and I expect her to be the intellectual heavyweight for the Court's liberal wing when Ginsburg leaves.

Really? I've heard that sort of talked about re: Kagan.

Kagan voted against the Medicaid expansion, in one of the most legally absurd decisions of recent years. She's a disgrace and Obama made a huge mistake appointing her.

Kagan, Holder, and Rahm really seem like they got the job because they had known Obama for a while, not because they'd be any good at it.
