Re: "The courts are the last point where reason and objectivity can overcome emotion and partisanship"

How predictable. The liberal view is that the liberal view is superior. Big surprise there no? That's why they are so dangerous in positions where they posses arbitrary power. Would you feel the same way if the bench was stuffed with fundimentalist Christians? What if they used their "reason and objectivity" to rewrite the law? Would you sleep better knowing they were above partisanship? Would you still believe they were above it all when they rewrote the law to put their man in the White House?

So to answer the question the article posed, Do you really want lawmakers picking the next President? My answer is, in this case yes because the alternative is to have 6 liberal judges pick the next president. The law provides for the Legislature to do so and this law wasn't enacted after the fact and the rules and standards weren't changed repeatedly to favor one political party in carefully selected precints by Courts "where reason and objectivity can overcome emotion and partisanship"
