Martin and Kasey are back with more on the modern Supreme Court!  In between Kasey expressing her disappointment with Martin not knowing who K.P. & Envyi are, the hosts discuss the importance of the swing vote on the Court, and why we should be worried about the fact that there really isn’t a swing voter anymore (at least, not in the way there used to be) among the 9 justices.  They also talk about the Supreme Court’s very weak Code of Conduct, and what it might look like if there was a way to actually enforce the requirement to “not allow family, social, political, financial, or other relationships to influence official conduct or judgment.”  Of course, we want the backgrounds of the justices to inform their opinions in some cases—but we want more of the human element and less of the political and financial ones.
