2. Hillary on the Supreme Court. That would work for me!
And yeah. It's for life. And she's pretty persuasive.

3. Senate majority leader would be FAR more aggravating
Edited on Sun Jun-29-08 03:07 AM by depakid
because she could be in their face, pummeling them procedurally on a weekly (if not daily) basis.

And no matter what one's thoughts on Hillary are, no honest and objective person who's analyzed the sorry tenure of Harry Reid can conclude that she wouldn't be a vast improvement.

4. The last thing that we need is another unqualified supreme court justice.
Seriously, Obama would have to be a lunatic to even consider such a thing.

6. Couldn't disagree more. Highly qualified . . .
And unfettered by the need to electioneer . . . potentially awesome.

5. The problem is Hillary is a DINO
Having her on the Supreme Court may not be as uplifting as some imagine.

7. Naah, she's just overpoliticized . . . it's her greatest weakness . . .
In the unassailable robes of a justice, I think you'd see a point of view much closer to your liking.

And it's not as if Obama is completely above tacking and trimming (see FISA) -- he'd be a fool to take Clinton on as Veep, but other offices might be real winners for us all.

Although getting rid of Reid in favor of someone who at least shares the same planet as the rest of us would be a strong positive as well.
