Can basically guarantee the ruling ends up going to the Supreme Court in some way in the end here. What happens there, I don't know.
This is the part I don't understand. You need a case to put before the Supreme Court. The case requires evidence. I don't see enough preponderance of evidence to justify any case at that level.
Again, I don't believe either side will have a Supreme Court case to present. Again, if it seems one is clear to be the loser and they don't want to accept, then halting at least 2-3 states in legal battles so they don't cast EV and neither gets 270, and it goes to House/Senate would be the conclusion.
I'm hoping it doesn't come to that, and doubt it will. But who knows.

this behavior is repugnant and should invalidate a source to anyone decent if they do it. period.
It is indeed repugnant behavior. It does not, however, invalidate a source. If the employees had kicked them out or called the police, ACORN would still be around. Likewise, when they catch people not only committing fraud, but admitting it's a federal felony, that's not fabrication. Honestly dude, there was a time not so long ago that a LOT of journalists and news agencies were doing exactly this in their "deep dive reporting". The only difference is that you don't like Veritas.
Again, there are still people who believe Trump said a lot of things that he didn't say due to edited clips. This has been done nonstop. Watch the full and unedited clip with context, and suddenly it's like, "Oh. He didn't." I don't disagree that it's distasteful and O'Keefe is a dick. But that has nothing to do with credibility.
