Stephen Daniels' essay examines the series of studies of state supreme courts by Bliss Cartwright, Lawrence M. Friedman, Robert A. Kagan, and Stanton Wheeler, studies that report the results of what I will call the State Supreme Court Project. In this comment, I will not focus on the critique that Daniels makes of these studies; rather, I will consider a broader set of issues that his essay and the articles that he discusses raised for me.
