serve on the Supreme Court?

Serious question. All in all, we are a pretty moderate country with loud folks on the left and right edge. Some folks lean a bit to the left or the right depending on the issue and whether it be social, economic, environmental, etc. A moderate court would reflect those values more consistently. We in the US suffer under a winner-take-all politic and about half the country disagrees with those in power. A moderate court might help temper that. What do you think?
