The point is there is some pressure for them to do the right thing, perhaps more than we think.

IMO, I honestly don't think they even need to be pressured... they want this case and it is their branch of government (as guardian of the constitution) that would be harmed irreparably.

As much as everyone thinks they are sitting their in their little robes fretting over mass rioting and protests, they couldn't give two s**ts if cities burn. They are first among equals when it comes to the three branches and cases like this only serve to reiterate that, imo.

Oh, and I say that in a good way... they need to be able to rule free from the constraints of Obama, Pelosi and the the folks that will be looting Korean corner stores.

Exactly, that is what I trying to say, a self imposed/peer/SCOTUS pressure not external pressure.
