I don’t question that “some” consent decree was signed on this general subject by the pubs and the dims.

I do question that there is not “another way” for the Pubs to “police” elections.

Like so many other things, Boehner is acting squishy on big tough issues (those requiring balls) for some reason as are many other top pubs.

Seriously, it does “appear” sometimes that Obama and Jarrett have the goods on the Republican leadership. What else is there to explain their spinelessness the past 7 years. Same goes for the Supreme Court.

Absolutely, and who would want to be represented by those not intellectually flexible enough to find such ways.

It appears it was Bigtoona who wrote above: "This is why the Republicans have been so adamant about pushing for Voter ID laws." Again, absolutely correct.

Further, in fairness I think all the Pubs agreed to do in this suit and what appears to be at the center of the court's view, is not to
“us[e], [or] appear[] to use, racial or ethnic criteria in connection with ballot integrity, ballot security or other efforts to prevent or remedy suspected vote fraud.”

Now, who among us does not agree that makes sense?

There may be many legitimate grounds for criticizing the Republican party but it is not clear this is one of them.
