And for christ's sake, what have we come to when we're giving away judicial seats as consolation prizes?
Hugo Black got his because he supported the New Deal in the Senate. It's been done before and will keep being done. How the justice gets their seat doesn't matter so much as what they do with it, IMO. Most of Nixon's appointees are classic examples.
