The Dims WILL nationalize this if SCOTUS steps in.

This is not a "nationalizable" issue.

Nobody in California is going to change their vote because of what the NJ Supreme Court did. I wish they would but they won't. Same goes for the US Supreme Court. It can affect the NJ race but it won't affect anything else.

If the Supremes reverse then of course the media will spin and spin but the net result will be zippo.

What the republicans in NJ should do, is wait a few more days, until the new "Lautenberg" ballots are printed up, then look for 2 or 3 republicans that are behind in the polls in some race in NJ, have them withdraw, and petition the NJ Sup. Ct. to allow their new candidate on the ballot. How could the NJ Sup. Ct. possibly refuse? And, it would demonstrate how ridiculous their decision was, b/c now, up until the day before the election, they have to let the parties change candidates to ensure the "right" of the people to a competitive election between the two parties. If the NJ Sup. Ct. refused to allow the republicans to change candidates, even the media would have to question the decision (although, it probably wouldn't surprise me if they didn't).
