I heard a report several months ago, that Ginsberg wanted to retire 2 years ago. The Hillary camp was informed.
They got in touch with her. The aged, senile old judge was afraid that Obama would not appoint someone radical enough.

Back then, it was a given that Hillary would win, so Hillary told her to wait and even told her who the replacement would be. Good Lord is it scary to think of who the Vile Harridan would have picked.

Too bad the plot got foiled. Liberal geniuses, they over-thought the whole affair.
Paralysis by analysis.
