List of Potential Supreme Court Justices

Milwaukee's own, Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist is 80 years old, with cancer. Justice John Paul Stevens is 85 years old. Justice Sandra Day O'Connor is 75 years old. Speculation has been mounting, and word is that (at least) one of the current members of the U.S. Supreme Court will be retiring sometime after Mondays end of the current term.

With this speculation, has come the game of speculating who will be replacing the retiring Justice. Personally, I would support a candidate who is not listed: Judge Richard Posner of the 7th Circuit, and the Becker - Posner Blog. So do others.
