Legal Affairs is having a contest to see how many people will visit their website to help out friends, former professors, favorite bloggers, and ideological compadres — er, rather, to determine who are the Top 20 Legal Thinkers in America.
Specifically, the poll asks you to vote for “the country’s most influential and important legal thinkers—the ones whose ideas are pushing the law forward (or backward, as the case may be).” Of course, if “the law” means legal doctrine, then the 9 members of the Supreme Court are the winners. Being “Supreme” will do that. But I don’t know if that’s what they have in mind.
The bloggers on the list of 125 nominees include blogfather Eugene, Lawrence Solum, Jack Balkin, Glenn Reynolds, Tom Goldstein, and (just in time) Richard Posner. To see how Legal Affairs picked its nominees, see here. Link via Howard, who isn’t on the list himself but perhaps should be.
