Alito may have simply deferred to a stay in this case based on a need for him to review it.
I would not rule in favor of an execution unless I had time to review the case completely.
Also, some freepers here are out of control reactionary like liberals, not you gondramB.
Some people freaked out about Roberts being an unknown and despite the reservations he has been solid.
Conservatives from Ann Coulter to Mark Levin have staked their reputation on the value of a Justice Alito and those folks do not put their name on the line for a closet liberal.
Remember, Ted Kennedy went mental the other day. He did that because Justice Alito was on the horizon.
Also, ever think this vote was an initial slap in the face to Ted Kennedy inferring that Alito is a bigot who never votes in favor of blacks.
Don't know that, but I can tell you this. I will not go reactionary liberal like some freepers.

According to one genius freeper who was freaking out last night on this procedural ruling that Alito is another Souter and the Left made the greatest game of deception in history of US politics by making the President, our Senators, and tens of millions of conservatives think that he is really a conservative where in reality he is a closet liberal. Of course I offered our genius freeper to send him some Reynolds Aluminum roll to make a lot of tin foil hats and bunch of pamper dippers.
