Dementia? And Justice Scalia [View all]

Is it possible that Supreme Court Justice Scalia is in the early stages of Alzheimer's or some other form of dementia? Ronald Reagan's dementia was hidden from us and likely was affecting his ability as President. Is it possible Scalia and his handlers are doing the same thing in hopes a Republican President will be elected? There is something wrong with this guy and I can't help wondering what is going on.
