It still won't be necessarily a right down the line conservative court. Quite a few of the Republican nominated justices "switch sides" on important issues. There's always the speculation of which one could be a swing vote. I've never heard that speculation about a Democrat nominated justice. Hell Justice Souter wasn't even considered a swing vote. He was assumed to be voting with the Dem nominees.
