The leak could end up helping. Any conservative justice who switches their votes from that draft will look as though they succumbed to the mob. That could prevent a shaky “yes” from switching.
My view exactly. There may have been a chance Of Roberts convincing Kavanaugh or one of the others to join him in a narrow concurrence holding the Mississippi law constitutional but saving most of Roe. But I think that ended with the leak.
One would think that but it would depend on why they flipped. Roberts infamous Obongocare switch for instance. Will we ever know the sinister truth of that?
