Dahlia Lithwick, Slate Constitutional Law columnist and Stanford Law graduate, a student of Kathleen M. Sullivan, always has an interesting take on conlaw themes.

Sort of like being left behind when your date leaves you at the dance and runs off with someone else. 

So sad when this happens, isn't it?
