There's been a lot of hating on Justice Kennedy today, from both the left and right; for a counterpoint, read this thoughtful, eloquent piece from @JoshuaMatz8, a former AMK clerk and publisher of @ShallTakeCare. #SCOTUS #AppellateTwitterhttps://twitter.com/JoshuaMatz8/status/1012054349248331779 …
He's a former #SCOTUS clerk with a great legal resume, but I don't think he's in the top tier of candidates. Appointing politicians to the Court is like waking up earlier to hit the gym - sounds great, everyone likes to talk about it, nobody actually does it.

I think Lee has a legit shot. A problem might arise though if McCain can't vote for health reasons and Lee can't vote for himself (recuse?). That would leave the Senate at 49-49. Pence could break tie but not sure they want to cut it that close.
