McC-F Fallout/Court Watching

Something occurred to me about this whole McC-F situation and the appeal to the Supremes. Given that it is unlikely that they will take the case and deal with it over the summer, I am wondering if this may affect some retirement decisions. Most specifically I am thinking Rehnquist. I really expected him to retire this summer, and now I wonder, given his interest in the past in the campaign finance issue (and his participation in all the major campaign-finance cases from Buckley onward), that this might entice him to stay longer.

And if he stays, does he retire in an election year? Or does he hang on and hope that Bush is re-elected. It should be interesting to watch.
