What's the strategery here?

that's the big problem - to h*ll with strategy to gain votes, and not offend this one or that one - we need leadership not strategy!

I agree that morality and ethics should be the guiding principles on decisions like this.

But, to the extent that there is a strategery, I'm just asking: shouldn't that strategery make some sense? This one seems to be the opposite of one that would actually work (e.g., make an "inclusive, diverse" speech, and file a brief that takes a principled position against all race-based preferences).

No--strategery for winning the most gains in this case!
