Thanks for the ping!
You mean that screeching "drag your fingernails across a blackboard" voice? LOL!
Estrich is more honest and accurate than many other 'rat pundits. I think her analysis is correct and there will be partisan - conservative vs. the left - backlash because race has already been inserted into this case by the left and by Nifong in his role as prosecutor. His meeting with Malik Shabazz cemented the high profile presence of race in this case. She is correct that going forward with a trial will escalate the tensions and sully the result of the trial. She's just clarifying what we all know, and that this is a train wreck that must be stopped before all these lives and the process are completely ruined.
