      So this is a ... good thing for conservatives?

      As textualism is a principle, not an instrument to achieve certain preferred outcomes save the preservation of the Constitution's original public meaning, I'd say yes. it's not a means to an end but an end in itself.

      That has always confounded people who always believed this statement of principle is a smoke screen to achieve legislative objectives from the bench, which, I again maintain, is projection.

      I mean, Republicans brought the case forward (though nationally that seemed not to be a popular decision.) It seems to be a real heads I win tails you lose situation.

      I frankly don't understand why this case was brought in the first place, but as you know there's a lot of tension within the coalition over the virtue of conservative principles which critics contend are self-defeating. I dunno. Guess the individual mandate is back?

      I had no quarrel with bringing the case. I just thought it asked for relief they had no right to get.

      It was a hopeless case from the start. Mainly, I thought, on severability grounds. I’m mildly surprised by the standing holding.

      Same here. I thought it should & might win on the mandate, but was obviously doomed on severability.
