My quibble is that you think there are many demonrat politicos that come close to breaking out of the 2 digit IQ range... Ted Cruz is batting with at least a 130, so...
Plenty of us fall into the latter category, but nobody is beating down our doors with supreme court nominations...
Mines North of 150, do you want me making legal decisions?

You could hardly do worse than a lot of what we have now, and at least we'd be entertained.

The far Left is gearing up to go berserker on Amy Coney Barrett.
"Barrett is a devout Roman Catholic mother of seven, whom the abortion ghouls are convinced will show up to the Supreme Court on her first day with a flaming sword, and overturn Roe v. Wade all on her own."
Meanwhile Trump, who is known to play political 4-D chess, may nominate a Latino woman.

My dark horse from that list would be Alison Jones Rushing. She would break the Ivy League stranglehold (Duke Law), she clerked for Gorsuch when he was a circuit judge and Thomas at SCOTUS. Federalist society member.
Oh, and she's only 38. So she could easily sit on the Court for 40 years.
40 years? Start a pool! With the amount of work being done on longevity by the likes of David Sinclair and the advances that could happen in then next few decades I'll buy the square for 60.

My wife's uncle by marriage gives new meaning to the "deranged" in TDS. He posted something about Amy Coney Barrett being a member of a cult that oppresses its women.
I responded with:
Membership is voluntary. The real question is, how good are the sandwiches they make?
and
The men in the cult are failing spectacularly at oppression if one of their handmaids gets nominated for the Supreme Court.
I'm trying to make one of his rabid friend's head explode. I'm a bad man.
My daughter in law PM'ed me:
It’s not the men’s fault! She probably asked her husband, “Hey, do you care if I get sworn into the Supreme Court?” And he tried really hard to say, “No, you have too many toilets to clean!”, but his mouth was full of sandwich and he couldn’t get the words out
I now love her even more.
Note to self: start reading sig lines. They're actually quite amusing. :D
