At least Stevens and Ginsburg can retire in peace.

8. That's why I said "more or less." |

At least it can't go further to the right.

15. Kennedy might be even more conservative than O'Conner, but I don't know if he'd atually overturn |

I think our long-serving friends on the high court can safely retire now.
We won't have to worry about any more Scalia's or Alito's for a while.
Thank God!
