This is major league stuff, and trying to pretend it does not exist will only make it worse.
Of course, no over zealous democrat prosecutor would, say, impanel a Grand Jury, say, in Austin and score a political victory?
And the overturn was not simply on a technicality, but was a devastating judgment against the prosecutor and the original judge.
Democrats would NEVER play politics with the court process would they?

You err in seeing that ONLY repubs would ever plat politics.
