This decision will have the half-life of a "W" key in the Clinton White House. While temporarily discouraging, the Supremes will reverse without pomp or ceremony, probably 8 to 1. The biggest beneficiary will be the President and his judicial nominees. We've been waiting for a crack-pot decision to come down and force the Dems in the Senate to run for cover. The Ninth Circuit gave us this decision on a silver platter. Strict constructionists just came back into style today.

See my post #77

It won't even be argued in the Supreme Court

This should enhance our chances to Take Back the Senate -- think right now you can chalk up South Dakota as a win for sure -- Thune should be a slam dunk since daschle is holding up judicial nominiations! Should also help Hutchinson in AR. IOTW, any Republican running for Senate here in the Bible Belt of flyover country should win hands down.

We need to use the obstruction of judicial nominees by the DemocRATS and this court case in every Republican Senate campaign as an example of why we need Republicans in charge of the Senate so that President Bush's nominees who can read the Constitution can be approved. To have that Circuit make a ruling based on wording that is not in the Constitution is mind boggling!
