Sorry I know a number of judges, and while I don't agree with them all the time I do agree that they have their position.
Checks and balances come from ANY other judge that will allow you to use their courtroom to hear any complaint or issue.
To have the ability to remove judges at whim is folly. Don't like the fact that they voted anti abortion, remove them from the bench. Don't like the fact they are sympathetic to minorities, remove them from the bench. Don't like the way they do something remove them from the bench.
No it doesn't seem like a good way to do business at all. Seems to me like "tyranny of the majority" is much more possible.
