Poor Judge Lynn Adelman.  For a brief time, the judge was a star in academia and among left leaning reporters when the court blocked Wisconsin voter ID.  His opinion was built on a house of sand in it’s interpretation of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act.  Now the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals says Wisconsin Voter ID is ALIVE for November election. 

What will all the academics, reporters and pundits do who gushed over the lower court’s opinion blocking the law?  I suspect silence will be the response. It usually is.

This also gums up efforts in North Carolina and Texas for voter ID opponents who were eager to borrow Adelman’s reasoning to strike down those laws.
