Justice Clarence Thomas, a reliable conservative vote on the Supreme Court, is mulling retirement after the presidential election, according to court watchers.

Thomas, appointed by former President George H.W. Bush and approved by the Senate after a bitter confirmation, has been considering retirement for a while and never planned to stay until he died, they said. He likes to spend summers in his RV with his wife.

His retirement would have a substantial impact on control of the court. The next president is expected to immediately replace the seat opened by the death of conservative Justice Antonin Scalia, providing a one-vote edge in the court that is currently divided 4-4.

Should Thomas leave, that slight majority would continue if Donald Trump becomes president. If it's Hillary Clinton, then she would get the chance to flip two Republican seats, giving the liberals a 6-3 majority.

And, conservatives fear, that could switch to a 7-2 majority if Republican Justice Anthony Kennedy, already a swing vote, retires. He will be 80 next year.

We recently reported that if Clinton wins the presidency, her majority liberal court could stay in power at least until 2050.

Now it's even more important that Hillary becomes president. Hillary could possibly nominate THREE justices to the Supreme Court.

Why does a Lakota support government gun grab
 
The 2016 election is turning into conservative Waterloo.
They know they will not win the White House which means likely 2 and possibly as many as 3 or 4 Supreme Court justices will be appointed by the next president, and the Republicans will lose the Senate. The House will likely be in play though they won't lose control.

And this won't be something that can be turned back in future elections. This is it for the Tea Bagger neocons, their last gasp.

Perfect Storm.

I love my guns. I don't support a "gun grab" - just sane gun control laws. However, SCOTUS is about much more than guns.

Well, like my uncle used to tell me: "Shit in one hand and wish in the other; see which one fills up first"...

When I was a kid, my wish...

I was one of those kids that you would watch not crap for days and it made me sick a few times, so my wish might come true... Hell Ventura became governor during a race when the two main party candidates were not the best choice, so anything can happen...
 
Yep. Full radical liberalism is imminent.

America as we know it won't exist in 15 years.
 
I've never understood liberals.
They're winning on every front and yet they still complain about conservatives.
Conservatives haven't won a single battle
 
This is why it was so fucking stupid to nominate Trump. Clinton will end up selecting the successor to Scalia, possibly the successor to Thomas, possibly the successor to Kennedy (also the near certainty of replacing Ginsberg, but that's basically a wash). Congratulations Cinos, you we're now going to have a court that will be all too happy to affirm the alleged constitutionality of all firearms most sophisticated than a hand cannon.

As for Clarence Thomas - good riddance.

Why do you care? No matter how many justices are nominated by Republicans, at one point 7 of 9 were Republicans, and no court has slowed the drive to absolute leftist government even a little
 
This is hilarious, Republicans are so desperate for votes they'll leak anything to get the masses worked up. Who or what is the Washington Examiner and why does anyone get worked up by anything they have to say?
