7. Worst yet for Republicans, the judges decision is likely to be overturned

When the USSC agreed to hear the case over the NLRB nominees they asked both sides to come prepared to answer a series of questions never discussed in the earlier partisan rulings. Questions that hint strongly at overturning the lower court decisions, such as if 'informal' sessions every few days by a single senator to briefly open up the senate and then shut it down in a few minutes means that the senate has officially gone into recess or not?

It really was a short sighted power grab and attempt to hurt Obama by supposedly nonpartisan judges who can't think a few steps ahead.
