I've read lots of conservative pundit mumblings about the Supreme Court decision on Obamacare. They go both ways. Some like it, some hate it, some say they like it after first hating it.
Without citing all the various viewpoints (you can find them, as I did), let me summarize. Those who don't like the decision say Obama won, Roberts caved, it was Bush's fault for appointing Roberts, and voters will now decide they like the new law after all.
On the other hand, those who want to see the glass half full say we can blame Obama for a huge tax increase, that most employers will drop their health care plans now that state pools exist from which employees must purchase insurance, and that most importantly, Romney can run against Obamacare and be elected on a promise to cancel this unpopular law.
Who's right? Nobody knows. We will begin to learn the answer in roughly 130 days when we see who is elected. Given what Romney did with a similar law in Massachusetts, I'm not sure we know what he'll do if elected.
Damn ... we live in interesting times, don't we? As we once said in the days of radio, "stay tuned."
