The Obama spin team wins one in the scene-setting run-up to the naming of David Souter’s SCOTUS replacement. The WSJ today has an article claiming “business advocates and their counterparts in the consumer and labor camps say the potential candidates most frequently mentioned seem likely to share retiring Justice David Souter’s interest in providing what business wants most from courts: clear, narrow and predictable rules.”

Not a single opposing view is quoted — nor are any actual examples given.

A vet of these Court fights comments: “Apparently, ‘business advocates’ in Washington are the Charlie Browns of the lobbying world –convinced that this time Obama won’t pull the football away at the last moment.”
