To be expected. SCOTUS wants the issue DOA. SCOTUS has been given their goose step orders, i.e., “nothing, I repeat, nothing must impede obama’s progress towards taking office in January.”

I see it differently. The cases that have thus far came before the SCOTUS in conference have to do with putting the responsibility for vetting the candidates in the lap of the individual SoS of each state. IMO this is unreasonable as each Sos would have to verify each candidate for each office. The task would be next to impossible.

OTOH if the burden is put upon the candidate/party to prove their eligibility, than the Berg/Keyes cases seem to have more merit.

I'm sure the SCOTUS is weighing who is responsible for vetting in the future as much as whether BO is guilty of fraud now.
