It was a given that John Roberts was going to get in, but as a sign of rulings to come for a looooong time (Roberts and Alito aren't exactly Stephen Breyer age), I'm curious if some of the dems who rolled over when Alito's nomination was going on aren't secretly kicking themselves in the ass for not putting up more of a fight.
It's going to be very curious the next time an obscenity-related case comes down the pike. For Roberts, Alito and the GOP parrots on talk radio - it's amusing they feverishly protect the First Amendment when it comes to political ads, but obviously not when ordinary citizens opt to try to use their free speech rights if what that person says so much as strays from the party lines.
