Hear hear. (shaking head)

" “Judges are not politicians, even when they come to the bench by way of the ballot,” Roberts wrote. “A state may assure its people that judges will apply the law without fear or favor — and without having personally asked anyone for money.”"

Which implies that politicians can accept money in exchange for favors. Wow.
