I don't know the rules of the Supreme Court. Do they have to consider pretty much everything that comes across their desks?

RE: if the Supreme Court even conceives of hearing this partisan, bigoted piece of foolishness...

There is a story that during the crafting of the Constitution, one of the honored delegates consumed a great deal of debate time voicing his objections to the prescribed process of impeachment.  At length another delegate rose to make the point that should no provision for impeachment be included, the only way to remove a corrupt or criminal president would be assassination.  Properly chastened, the first delegate responded, "My objection is withdrawn."

Wonder why they didn't think of that when they made the Supreme Court a lifetime appointment.  Aren't these guys practically begging to get popped if they somehow try to overrule this election?  The loony righties gearing up to take down Obama will be balanced by the loony lefties aiming for Roberts or Scalia...
