Specter comes out - and it is significant that at first, Alito said his conclusion was based on liberty clause of the Constitution, but just now, Alito added a comment thathe also found foundation in the 14th. Griswold was decided on multiple grounds, and the liberty clause foundation is the one less troublesome for those who despise judicial activism. Finding privacy in the 14th amendment is a stinker.

Listening for "superduper" or "super precedent" - so far Specter is avoiding those silly labels.
