Two great SCOTUS reads as we wait…

By Douglas Berman

Thanks to How Appealing, I see two great reads for SCOTUS watchers:

  • Tom Goldstein at SCOTUSblog has this post which looks at how the 2008 presidential election could impact SCOTUS.  (It is equally fun to thinking about how SCOTUS might impact the 2008 presidential election.)
  • Brent Kendall has this engaging article in The Daily Journal discussing this year’s oral arguments before the U.S. Supreme Court.

Of course, the big SCOTUS buzz in my brain concerns the possibility that we will get a ruling in Claiborne and Rita soon.  I doubt they will come as early as this Monday.  But these rulings are surely now only weeks away (if not days).
