Sorry, but anything less than a firm repudiation of this travesty leaves a smoldering ember that can be fanned into flame later.

I see this as nothing but a loss. The only reason Demoncrats are upset is that they think they lost just a little ground.

I don’t think the Dems are upset about this at all. It’s going to be a great mobilizing issue for them going into 2014. Their base will believe itwhen told that this ruling overturned the voting rights act when it does nothing of the sort (preserving preclearance, just sayng that a 50+ year old formula can no longer be used)
