Negative Space: Django-MPTT

Election Returns: Commentators can’t resist Mr. Dooley’s line, “th’ Supreme Coort follows th’ iliction returns”—even though the entire controversy over the court centers on the fact that it does not follow the election returns. Conservatives resent this. However, when liberals campaign against a nominee, conservatives complain about the “politicization” of the judiciary. They’ve got it backward. The sitting Supreme Court is supposed to be above politics. Choosing justices is where politics is supposed to come into it. — Michael Kinsley (Judicial Buzzwords)
