I agree his comments were a gaffe..... un-Presidential, but am reminded of how many other times our Presidents have complained about the Court. I don't think his statements are influential to the Supreme Court, he's campaigning...at least he didn't mention using an Etch-a-Sketch if the law is struck down. I expect the Justices to do their duty as the highest jurists in the land and that they are pretty well immune to campaign sound bytes....

As far as their ruling goes, I think the constitutionality of the mandate to buy commercial insurance really is suspect and (of course) regret that the law had to be watered-down to try to get private insurance companies to step into the gap. If the current plan is undone, then where do we go from here? There aren't any other plans on the table to address the problem of national healthcare.
