Would you like to see the next President put forth moderate nominees...
as federal judges in order to garner more bipartisan support?

2. No, I would rather see more left-leaning judges.
I wouldn't mind seeing a couple more judges in the mold of Ginsburg on the SCOTUS, to be honest. I just don't see how moderate judges are going to balance the right-wing types, such as Scalia and Alito.
