When did #SCOTUS's RBG become a rock star? Her popularity has never been higher.
-
@rickhasen She's been on a roll since her "skim milk" marriage comment in the Windsor oral argument.
.@AnthonyMKreis Who will write the RBG is a Rock Star piece? I want to read it.

@rickhasen@AnthonyMKreis The New Republic ran a piece about the meme-ification of RBG a few months ago. http://www.newrepublic.com/article/118641/ruth-bader-ginsburg-memes-how-internet-fell-love-her … -

@victoriakwan_@AnthonyMKreis And if you are RBG, hard to leave#SCOTUS when you are at the top of your game. -
@rickhasen@AnthonyMKreis Yes. The fact that she's embraced memes/fan tributes (regularly mentioning notorious RBG, Scalia/Ginsburg opera).. -
@rickhasen@AnthonyMKreis ... works very well in her favor. Makes her seem less "distant" than most other Justices. -
.
@victoriakwan_@rickhasen She's an asset to the Court's legitimacy at a time the justices sorely need reminding of their role as guardians. -
@AnthonyMKreis@rickhasen She and Sotomayor have been excellent at drumming up good PR for the Court in their downtime. -
@victoriakwan_@rickhasen Scalia does his fair share of that too. But not to the endearment of the public-- to him personally or the Court.
