The Supreme Court's 5-4 decision upholding the Obama administration's health care legislation was a victory for the president, his administration and his party. Their most ambitious legislative achievement has not been nullified, and they are not left in obvious disarray.
But it is only a partial victory and in some ways not a victory at all, both in the short run electorally and in the long run in terms of the constitutional order.
Politically Obamacare, as its critics call it, remains highly unpopular. It's possible that the court decision will boost its support, but unlikely.
Most voters...












I think you're going to feel pretty silly in about a year, for making the comment above. But then again in a year, you'll have forgotten about it anyway and will be ignorantly ranting about something else, you mindless idiot.
(There; see how pointless *ad hominem* is? Makes the target angry, but establishes no principle.)
Roberts made a brilliant move that puerile and mindless folks (Left and Right) don't understand. I'm sure that doesn't bother the Chief Justice; he's not throwing rubber chickens to the pee-stained groundlings to get their cheers.
