I Kringe if it’s left up to Kennedy

“I Kringe if it’s left up to Kennedy”

As I recall Kennedy was furious with Chief Justice Roberts for changing his vote on Obamacare. I’m more worried about Roberts than Kennedy.

I have no doubt that Kennedy will get his revenge by siding with the pro religion forces. Roberts could regain some judicial integrity if he votes against the administration, but no telling what this guy will do.

I can’t believe that Rush today counted Roberts as one of the four reliable conservative votes on the Supreme Court. Rush is losing it.

At the end of the day I don’t think we will lose any of the four who voted to strike the whole thing down.
I can’t see Kennedy saying the whole law is unconstitutional then upholding a single egregious part of that law.
Roberts is they key. If they have him all the pictures in exchange for the first vote then perhaps he is now free to do what he wants.
Of course that is rank speculation on my part.
I read all the oral arguments, and based on the traditional way of predicting votes I think we win either 5-4 or 6-3.
Breyer’s vote is at least in play.
And Roberts, well his vote is always in play for either side.
