Will the Sotomayor nomination influence how the Supreme Court handles the Ricci v. DeStefano case? It's certainly influenced the Obama Administration's view of the case, as their current spin does [1]not quite match the Justice Department's [2]amicus brief. At SCOTUSBlog, Kevin Russell has a [3]very interesting post speculating about how the politics of the nomination might influence the outcome and opinion in Ricci.
