So one of 4 SCOTUS libs has casual talk w/ Kennedy. If he’s leaning against Obama, libs vote to deny cert. Or is that not how it works?

@kausmickey Takes 4 votes to get cert so Roberts, Alito, Scalia and Thomas could stick together to grant it w/out Kennedy or libs.
@kausmickey That’s not how it works. Only takes FOUR – not five – out of 9 votes to grant cert. And everyone votes.
@kausmickey No. #simpleanswers #stupidquestions
@kausmickey Wouldn’t matter. Only need four to grant cert.
