Insanity?
The best that the IDers can hope for is a very narrow decision, which I think will be the case. The board can drop it's attempt and hope they don't get booted out of office. Then the IDers can go along blithely saying the Dover case was a fluke and badly handled and look for a setting where the actors are better looking and try again.
For the judge to slap them hard I think is unlikely since judges hate to be overturned.
