If this is a measure designed to promote greater interest in the affairs of the judicial branch, I think it fails to address the real problem.  Indeed, this is not the first time we have considered fixed terms for judges; it was largely defeated on the basis of opposition to politicization of the Court, and there is merit to the argument that the prospect of renomination, or lack thereof, could alter the interpretations of justices in legal questions.
