Hillary is certainly qualified...she has a strong academic law background, a strong litigation background in Ark, a strong national legal advocacy background with Childrens Defense Fund and as a Carter-appointed board member of the Legal Services Corp, and a strong federal legislative background.

I think its a bit disingenuous to suggest that one's demeanor during a hard fought political campaign would be the same if she were to serve on the Court.
What I dont think she has....is the interest in a judicial position.
For the most part, a USSC justice (particularly the most juinor) is a very low key position and would not provide the opportunity to focus on advocating her particular areas of interest - children/family issues, health care.
