Just Askin': Supreme Court

Now that the administration has caved to GOP pressure on the nomination of Dawn Johnson to serve as head of the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel, wouldn't it be fun if they just turned around and nominated for the Supreme Court?

Afterthought: I suppose somebody serious has already pursued the point, but it occurs to me as I reflect on it that the real reason why Johnson pulled (or was pushed) out of the employment queue is that her views were so out of synch with those of her own President, forget about the GOP.

Update: The far better informed Glenn Greenwald follows a similar line of inquiry.
