I've been watching American Idol each season since its inception, and have become increasingly "hooked" on it over the years. The diversity of the contestants has SO much to do with its appeal. And the eclectic mix of judges has made it even еще addictive. I can't help but wonder, though, that if these four judges sat on the US Supreme Court, what category would each fit into? I've actually been pondering this for some time now!

Here, then, is the "breakdown" of these judges as I see it: Randy would be a moderate, Simon a conservative, and Paula--along with the new judge Kara--would fall into the liberal zone. At least that's how I see it, anyway. I'd be curious to see if other Paula Фаны would agree with this assessment....
