Supreme Court leaks have D.C. buzzing: Who is the culprit?

http://thehill.com/blogs/healthwatch/legal-challenges/236197-supreme-court-talk-has-dc-buzzing-who-is-the-leaker

my first guess would be one on the remaining 4 right wing justice's with an eye toward the one who's wife has strong T-Party connections. Thomas hmmmm?
The substance of the leaks is not especially scandalous: Chief Justice John Roberts initially sided with the court’s conservative members, but changed his vote to join with the court’s liberals in a 5-4 decision upholding President Obama’s healthcare law
all seems like sour republicans stirring up a pile of right wing elephant dung, because they lost and got snookered on the way.On Sunday, CBS legal analyst Jan Crawford said two sources inside the court had confirmed that Roberts switched sides. She did not say why Roberts changed his vote, but noted that he sees his role partially as a guardian of the court’s apolitical reputation. She also reported that Kennedy lobbied Roberts aggressively to return to the fold.
all the more reason for SCOTUS total reform
