They aren't wrong, this is untested waters and it will be interested to see how this plays out. I mean, I can see some constitutional arguments to be made, but they aren't strong where the law stands right now.

I think they are stupid because at least everyone else TRIED to hide behind some other method.  These guys hirde a guy and said "Figure it out so we win more and they win less."  Then he admits that.

You don't find that kind of honesty in politics unless they are especially dumb.
