This Krugman article nails it. I would appreciate if someone could find the Miami Herald article that first broke this story.
The Florida cops told Jeb they would abide by the court, not by him. They did the correct thing as per the law and two centuries of legal jurisprudence in this country.
We Democrats should attack Jeb hard on this, as he certainly desires to be President. This man attempted to provoke a constitutional crisis to erode the power of judicial review just to satisfy the desires of the right wing mob that rules this country. He does not respect the rule of law. We are a country of laws. Therefore, he is incapable of upholding the Constitution of the United States (or Florida for that matter) and should not be President.
If we Dems let Jeb have a pass on this issue then we don't deserve to be in power.
