How else would you want to pick a judge?

Got a million dollars or so? Then you too might have a chance to win a partisan political party's nomination to sit as an impartial arbiter of justice as a member of the Alabama Supreme Court. Bonus points if your television commercials promise you'll rule a certain way on a subject or are funded by people or organizations likely to come before the court frequently.

There are better ways, of course, but what fun would that be?
