FYI: Other SCOTUS justices w/o experience
Here are three legal giants whose first jobs as judges were on the Supreme Court:

John Jay: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Jay
John Marshall: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Marshall
Joseph Story: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Story

It would be interesting to see if they dodged questions in confirmation hearings like Roberts or made an effort to give answers.
