I am surprised by the Chief Justice making any statement… especially after Justice Ginsburg was chastised by the media for her political observations. Perhaps Justice Roberts is disconcerted that his “swing vote” status is marginalized by the presence of a (newly established) majority of Constitutionalists rather than a more even split with the judicial activist justices. Future cases are now more likely to be adjudicated on compliance with the Constitution rather that outside social/political pressure. His power is diluted.
Justice Roberts should take his cue from the public reticence of Justice Kagan who confines her judicial compassion to the chambers of the Supreme Court. Having not done so… he will now be submitted to yet another round of media flogging (remember his amazing and confusing swing vote which sustained Obama’s “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act”).
