One question I have is, why did Ginsburg join a restrictive opinion on standing, when expanding standing has long been one of her top agenda items (e.g. Laidlaw)? One guess I'll throw into the mix is that if she refused and thereby allowed an opinion on the merits, Kennedy would not have gone her way and the opinion would not have been the one she wanted. This requires us to speculate that Kennedy, having gotten his lib on in Windsor, inclined toward a much more moderate holding in Perry, had the merits been reached. :: David M.
