Scalia has revealed how totally partisan he really is!! From his concurrence today:Justice Scalia, concurring:

On the question of irreparable harm, however, a few words are appropriate. The issue is not, as the dissent puts it, whether "counting every legally cast vote can constitute irreparable harm." One of the principal issues in the appeal we have accepted is precisely whether the votes that have been ordered to be counted are, under a reasonable interpretation of Florida law, "legally cast votes." The counting of votes that are of questionable legality does in my view threaten irreparable harm to petitioner, and to the country, by casting a cloud upon what he claims to be the legitimacy of his election.

What he's saying is that because a machine couldn't read them they aren't "legally cast votes"! Incredible logic. Hitler would have loved someone who thought like this...
