Sorry, poor wording on my part - I know they won't drop their attack on the judicial system, just the attempt to use the Schaivo case in that attack.

Santorum wants to schedule hearings to grill the Florida judges as to what authority they thought allowed them to "ignore the clear will and intent of Congress" by refusing to interpret the federal-court-jurisdiction emergency-law the way Santorum & Co. wanted it interpreted.

But maybe not.
