DJ, if you've been following supreme court decisions at all over the, oh, past decade you would know that while it has been getting more and more politicized (and split) over time... and the split is in the right wing's favor, and has been since the early '90s. That won't change until one of the five right-wing justices retires or dies with a Democrat in office.
The supreme court could support this judge's agreement that the 14th amendment doesn't allow this, or maybe leave it as a state issue, or just not pick it up, or something like that... but I am skeptical, and definitely aren't expecting this decision to hold up; yes, it might, but it also well might not. We will see.
