Yep, and you'll notice that only ONE of those names is a conservative vote.

It's currently a 5-4 conservative majority court, with at least four of them set to retire in the next four years.
Obama wins: we have a 7-2 liberal supreme court. (Or, if not liberal, at least not Republican reactionary)
Romney wins: we have a 7-2 conservative court to sit there making Citizens United rulings for the next 30 years.
The question is simple: Do you want four more Sotomayor's on the Supreme Court or four more Scalias.

I try hard to ignore the headlines put out by Yahoo news.
