You may well have hit the nail on the head. SCOTUS is waiting for the NJ voters or the (new Republican majority) Senate to take out the garbage, then they will put their seal of approval on it, safely after the political heat dies down.

Constitutionally this approach is more sound then SCOTUS taking a more activist approach of getting in the middle of this (by Demo-rat design) election fiasco (like they had to in the 2000 Presidential election.) As much as we know the Demo-rats and NJSC are flagrently violating NJ election law, SCOTUS knows the slippery slop hazard of them encroaching too often and deeply into the workings of the Legistlative branch. And of course the Rats and NJSC were counting on this, when they dared pull this stunt.

I am hoping the Voters will do it, But i would much prefer to hear the wailing and gnashing of teeth that would come from Forrester walking out on the Senate floor, to be sworn in by Trent Lott as Daschle Chokes, and lautenberg continues to drool on himself.
