I assume the State Supreme Court ruling is overturning the federal district court judge? If so, very good news, even though it was close (5-4!)

This order is based solely on this courts interpretation of state statutes. In other words - "Hey (Federal) Judge Dlott, stay the *^&@ out of this!"
To: RightFighter
If they can't cheat, they can't win. And although we have too many liberal judges in this country, there is still the matter of some level of fairness left. Thank goodness.
We're going to do great tomorrow. And we'll know by midnight Tuesday.

So what does this mean? They just told a federal liberal district judge in Cincinatti to go f#$% herself .... judicially speaking of course.

So what does this mean? It means that Clinton appointee bee-yotch Judge Dlott was smacked down.
To: pctech
Wasn't the contrary order from a Federal Court? If so, then I'm not sure what impact this contrary State Court order would have. Someone from Ohio can hopefully clarify.
