The SCOTUS won't touch this with a 10-foot-pole. Bank that.

Frank will be on the ballot on 11/5.

So we don't even try? Isn't it worth a try?

Democrats have no regard for the rule of law and they stack courts with judges that have no regard for the rule of law. If conservatives never challenge these Dems when they break the law, we'll never get off the ground. I know you think it's beneath conservatives to actually challenge the Dem lawbreakers in court, but sometimes you have to go down to the level of your enemy to defeat your enemy. The people aren't paying enough attention to reward us for fair play so we have to fight these Dems on more than just the public opinion level.

Former NJ Judge Napolitano disagrees with you. He just said on Fox News that the USSC will return the case to the NJSC next week and order it to reconsider, as it did to the FLSC. He says the language of the USSC order to the FLSC during the FL debacle is equally applicable to the NJ situation. Of course he doesn't know what the USSC will do, but then neither do you.

I'm praying to almighty God for the USSC to oveturn the NJ court, no matter what the politcal ramifications may turn out to be. This gross corruption in NJ stinks up the entire country, and it can't be allowed to stand or the nation may as well admit we no longer have a representative republic. Words mean things and the words of NJ's election laws are quite clear and easy to understand, even for corrupt NJ justices on the take.

I doubt it, but there is nothing wrong with trying. If they don't take it, well....we just have to go on without it. In any case, teh campaign should be approached like the SCOTUS is not involved or they have already ruled against the GOP.....Forrester needs to not get too distracted by the courts and focus on teh campaign....

The more pessimistic (I don't know why I am not with them, as I am pretty negative a lot of the time) are saying a GOP Scotus win would help the Dems out. Nonsense. This is not ruling on a President, but a Senate race. It does not have near as big a national impact. If anything, the GOP, which is already motivated more than the Dems, will become even MORE SO due to this NJ nonsense. And I don't think a SCOTUS ruling would change things much at all. The Dems will cry foul as usual, but the public won't give a rat's behind. They didn't really give a care in 2000 either.
