Based on recent form these figure to be very depressing results.
“The Court has announced that it will release opinions against (sic) at 10am Wednesday.”
WTH does this mean, opinions against?
The only opinion remaining from the March sitting is Heller. The only Justice without a majority opinion from that sitting is Justice Scalia.
Did the blog just tip off how SCOTUS was going to rule in Heller?
With McCain elected there is still a good chance he can get an appointment or 2! With pressure from conservatives he will appoint good people. Worst case scenario, dems block all appointments and the next election will be all about the Supreme Court.
This is where Rush is WRONG!!! If McCain gets in, we could claim a HUGE victory, if only nobody gets nominated.
NOBODY APPOINTED TO THE COURT OVER NEXT 4 YEARS WOULD BE A HUGE VICTORY!!!! This is why I vote for McCain
With Obama it`s all but over!!!!!

I’m uncharacteristically optimistic about Heller. Before cert was granted I was, and remain, a steadfast opponent to suing for our gun rights. In my view, it’s a “hail Mary” strategy that is as likely to backfire as anything.
Why the optimism? Because judges are politicians. And if you’re on the SCOTUS, chances are you’re a smart politician.
My prediction: a solid win. Not a complete win, but something that will keep gunnies coming back to the courts for several years.
We should know by the end of the week whether my optimism is misplaced.
