However, I can't stand his sidekick Ken Prewitt far too partisian for my taste, too many snide comments, and generally attempts to sell his viewpoint in his questions. Recent Prewittism. Tom made a comment on GM and Ken said "oh you mean Government Motors", but has he once ever made a similar snide remark on the trillions of bailout dollars that have gone to the banks? Nope, you'll never hear any reference to the quasi nationalism of the banks. I love Tom Keene and his podcasts, all worth listening to.

I'd prefer that Chrysler remain "all in the family," but you never know. Was it BMW that they used to describe as the best of everything? IE--Italian design, German engineering! @cvienne

In fact, she only received the people's response to the case filed by these speculators at 10 AM today. Remember that GM is coming down the pike, so she may want to issue more than a blanket rejection of the case without explanation. She may want to issue a rejection order with a strong, well composed legal justification to prevent a recurrence in the much larger case of GM. And I highly doubt that anyone on the Supreme Court is ever worried about being seen as "wimpy." @Pool

And the question becomes why grant <i>any</i> stay unless there is likely to be <i>some</i> kind of review on the merits? Why step in front of a speeding train unless you feel you have the power to stop/derail it. Issuing, and then meekly dropping a stay would be seen (rightly) as a wimp-out by the Supremes; she has to know this. Yep, but she needs only three more votes to get cert.
