Honestly, Ginsburg has made me support having a mandatory retirement age for judges. Make it 70 or 75. I do not think she has written her own opinions in years as the quality has noticeably gone down. We cannot have a vegetable on the court. A mandatory retirement age is not discriminatory to the right or the left. I actually think an incapacitated judge and some law clerk having free reign is worse than a bad judge.
On another note, Kagan has surprised me as being a far better judge than Sotomayor. I thought it would be the reverse when they were appointed. Even though Kagan clearly leans to one side, she will stick with the Constitution over partisanship on some matters. Sotomayor and Ginsburg seem unable to do that.
I have no idea what Roberts is doing now other than taking over for Ayatollah Kennedy.
