Politico: “Over the next six weeks or so, health care will be an unpredictable race within a race: The Obama campaign will seek to downplay the more divisive details of the law and tout the court’s approval of his signature legislative accomplishment as proof of his effectiveness — courtesy of an unlikely bipartisan partnership with a powerful conservative, Chief Justice John Roberts.”
“For Mitt Romney, who had every reason to expect the conservative high court to strike down at least a big part of the law, the decision requires a bit of recalibration. He had hoped to portray a full or partial repeal as evidence Obama squandered the trust of the American electorate by wasting two years that could have been used to create more jobs.”
Washington Post: “If conservatives
needed any more motivation to unseat President Obama, they got it
Thursday from the Supreme Court, which provided fresh political
opportunities for Mitt Romney even as it handed the president a legal
victory… Romney’s history, however, may make it difficult for him to capitalize on that argument.”
