I don't think he should have said anything before the decision. How would he, or congress, have felt had they weighed in while the bill was being put together? There's a reason he is the first...and i do not think it was a good precedent to set.
As for citizens united, from all i have read, i expect a revisit of the decision with a probable change.


and for the cheney GFY-that wasn't a case of him trying to influence a decision. much like obama's open mic 'give me space til after i win the election' moment, it wasn't actually for public consumption...and it also pales in comparison with other, far more physical moments between rivals on the house and senate floors.
