    This is an interesting question of law, that I predict will end up in the Supreme Court. What I still do not understand, is why Kaine- who I believe, would someday, like to seek higher office, did this. He may look back on the trusted advisor that counseled him to do this and realize; he made a mistake, just as Clinton did, when he pardoned Mark Rich.
