The decision makes sense, I guess, but too bad about Gingrich and Santorum.

Agreed. I think it says a lot about the organization of candidates who fail to fulfill state election requirements. Running for President is not an easy task, so it should force candidates to step it up and get their ground games going for all kinds of reasons.

Poorly played by several in the pot. I’m dissapointed.

It does not make sense if the question was the constitutionality of the process and the exclusion of candidates.

Something is either unconstitutional or not. The judge can't very well argue, "Yeah, it's unconstitutional, but you gotta do it anyway because you waited to long to complain."

Something is either unconstitutional or it isn't. It was a dumb ruling.
