Ok, because after her first showing, if it went to someone else I would actually feel more warm and fuzzy about the outcome.
Basic psychology says that once you buy a car and the color is Red, that from that point on your mind will begin to rationalize how nice the color Red is.
Based on this proven human behavioral pattern, I question that the process of Remanding something back is going to result in a different outcome, but would instead just motivate her to try very hard to justify her original ruling, and then pour us out.
That's why I regretted that whizzer's point about dismissing the case based on the pending SDNY case, because it would at least give her another way out that saves face - dismissal.
Let's face it, it it's remanded back she still has motivation to save face on her ruling from the bench.
