A "stinging setback" would be a setback that would kill forward momentium. (In your example, the stinging setback happened in court. The supporters of "Intelligent Design" lost a court battle thereby hurting their desire to be taught in schools.)
"Sting back" doesn't make sense.
Hope this helps - Kristi _________________ "That man is a success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much." R.L. Stevenson |
