Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg underwent surgery today for what is being described as "early-stage pancreatic cancer". This is her second bout with cancer-- She was treated for colon cancer ten years ago. She is 75, and about as tough as can be. From anactuarial standpoint I think it has been pretty widely assumed that her seat was likely to be one that Obama would have to fill.
