Thanks for the ping! Anything that makes both moveon.org and Juan McNasty foam at the mouth makes me happy. Sounds like Dan Becker is one to watch.

One of the most interesting aspects of the case is the role of lawyer Dan Backer. Backer is the driving force behind the decision. He went out and sought plaintiffs who could help strike down this law. Backer represents an activist breed of conservative lawyer who borrows the tactics of offense from the left and seeks to alter the legal landscape and the future of the nation. He was featured in USA Today last month.
