You mean SCOTUS will go directly against its own precedent? I'd certainly hope so, but I'm not going to assume that. We still need to keep the pressure on Congress to get it repealed, just as we would if we had nine Ginsburgs on SCOTUS.

Remember that a lot of conservatives were snookered into not making too big a deal over Bush's signing of CFR, on the theory that SCOTUS wouldn't uphold it. Fool me once...

I hope you're right on that. But given the charade of the original CFR passage, then its signing by Bush (cynically, as it were), and then when it all blew up in our faces with its upholding by SCOTUS in almost its entirety, pardon me if I'm still a bit skeptical on the entire legistlation going down in flames anytime soon .... but there is still some fleeting hope. Perhaps this latest outrage (ie: Internet regulation of political speech) may tilt the scales
