[edit] Majority opinion?

The article says the court failed to reach a single majority opinion. I think this statement is incorrect. The heading to the first opinion says: "REHNQUIST, C. J., delivered the opinion of the Court, in which WHITE, O'CONNOR, SCALIA, and KENNEDY, JJ., joined." That's five justices in all, which (as far as I'm aware) would make it a majority opinion. Justice Kennedy did, to be sure, file a separate concurring opinion, but he said he was also joining in the majority opinion. Richwales (talk) 01:58, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
