Once ACB is confirmed, it will be apparent that more conservative leaning decisions will likely come down from the court, & Roberts vote will be needed less, so will he start voting with the (conservative) majority more to get more 6-3 decisions or will he vote with the losers to make the votes 5-4 instead?
I think he will want to be seen more with the majority than with the losers.
YMMV

Well yes, if he wants to be Epsteined.
