I think clo is probably contemplating a Bush-Gore type of scenario.

Certainly, there are situations in which a split court is an ineffective one. And where it is ineffective, there are concomitant risks.

Bush-Gore was settled partly due to the tremendous authority and trust placed in the Supreme Court by the American people. Even grimacing, Dems accepted the Court's decision. 4-4 excludes this possibility.
