This issue is wandering around the blogosphere. This guy wrote a scenario in which several liberal senators were killed by assassins so that republicans could nominate the replacements. It also included a bit where five supreme court justices were killed, and nominations had to be made.
What's interesting is how fanciful this scenario is and how cynical the outcome is. Does he really think that the republican Governors faced with massive and open political assassinations would just blindly nominate republicans to replace all the Democrats killed? Would president Bush really nominate hard core republican nominees to replace all the more liberal members of the bench?
I don't think so.
