If Forrester announces on Friday that he IS going to the US Supreme Court, but he is NOT asking for any emergency relief, remember you heard it here, FIRST. If Forrester beats Lautenberg in the election like a rented mule, and then the US Supreme Court does the same to the NJ SC AFTER the election, it is a win-win-win proposition for the Republicans.
I have reason to believe that may be the decision. After the fact, I will tell you why I think that. For right now, the source is confidential.

Hmmmmm. Many thanks for your comments on matters constitutional and otherwise....

Perhaps a wise move, but a strategy still fraught with PR peril.

Forrester(or the GOP) will still have to file before the election, and irregardless of whether or not the USSC decides before election day to take the case, the Dems(and their media co-conspirators) will be screaming that the GOP and "their court" are planning to steal control of the Senate after the election. Will use that line to try and sway the close races, and especially NJ. So any PR gain for Forrester by waiting to contest will be more than countered with the Dem fearmongering of a USSC setup job, creating the perception that the GOP is no different and playing just as many political gains to win(unfair as such a perception might be.) And then if Senate control actually does end up resting on the NJ race, mama mia what a protracted howling it will be.

Tough choices ahead for the GOP strategists. The silver lining is that I think this whole fiasco likely confirms my suspicions that the swing middle was starting to shift to the GOP in many of the other key Senate races. Backs against the wall, the Dems had to return to their Clintonesque playbook of divisiveness, muddying the waters, firing up the base, and smearing the GOP in order to get the middle/swing voters disgusted with both sides and thus depress their turnout.

If Forrester wins before the SCOTUS decides wouln't the case then be moot. No harm, no foul.

This is very intriguing. But let's say that Forrester does not ask for any emergency relief, and then Lautenberg and the corrupt Dem. machine win the election. If the USSC rules in favor of Forrester after the election, would there any recourse?
