I heard a news article, on PBS, that many justices are having to run high powered campaigns to get themselves elected, which is also requiring more money. This makes them vulnerable to campaign donor influence, doesn't this worry anyone?
I haven't tracked down the precise article yet, but here is a link to PBS, which is pretty scary, not so much checks & balances as checks & cheques.
