I am not Ron, though I am an attorney. It is rarely wise to read too much into the oral arguments or the questions posed by the Justices, if you are trying to use those to determine the outcome of the case. Generally the Justices already have a good idea of how they might rule (oral arguments rarely change opinions, IMO), and the questions are often academic exercises rather than predictive of an outcome. Some Justices wear their opinion on their sleeve, and vote the same way, but most do not.

However, all that said, the questions and commentary from the bench at least offer a ``flavor`` for some of the thought processes (although whether 2-3 or of esteemed Justices on the SC still have a thought that is processed is up for debate).
