And that is precisely why the SCOTUS will rule in a close one so the political vagaries may be carried forward without becoming a defining issue in the upcoming elections ... can you imagine Osamabama or the Rodham rodent winning with gun-grabbing at the heart of their platform? Sadly, our SCOTUS has become a political animal.
