No, both sides don't do it

The fallout of a mixed Supreme Court decision.  Both sides play it safe with cautious reactions.
' @jimacostacnn via web So Mitt Romney puts out a statement saying nothing about the ruling but nonetheless saying "Obama sucks" in six different ways ... and President Obama puts out a statement saying he is mostly pleased with the ruling, but remains concerned about its "papers please" provision ... that means both sides do it?

When Mitt Romney's aides won't even say if Romney supports or opposes the ruling while President Obama's attorney general weighs in to pledge that the federal government will be aggressive in protecting civil liberties as Arizona moves forward with the remaining provisions of SB 1070 ... that means both sides do it?

When you have one side refusing to take any sort of position, doing its best to say absolutely nothing of substance ... and you have the other side clearly explaining its view of the ruling and its plans for moving forward ... then both sides do it?

Obviously, the answer is no. Both sides don't do it. And that's something Acosta should know ... since he's the guy who reported Romney's aides won't even say whether Romney supports the ruling.
