She was on the correct side of more 5-4 votes than I'd care to contemplate right now. A bit of a surpirse since I figured Rehnquist would step aside first. With the two of them leaving, we can expect a big fight in Congress over whatever lunatics Bush picks. My suspicion is that he'll pick one total lunatic (a la Scalia or Thomas) and one anti-choice "moderate." But Karl might veto a move that looks even slightly like compromise.
