SCOTUS Decision in New Haven Firefighters Case

Goverment-supported racial discrimination took a hit this morning when the decision in Ricci v. DeStefano was handed down (opinion at http://www.supremecourtus.gov/opinions/08pdf/07-1428.pdf), holding that the promotional exam results could not be thrown out based simply on a fear that they might be sued for not promoting enough minorities.

More on this later, but I wonder if Chris Dodd has had the time to look into this case long enough to form an opinion?
