Are you kidding?
Obama has the winds at his back now.
Even IF the RINO Romney wins the USSC precedent remains. When the democrats eventually take over again they have the RIGHT to force you to buy services ( and in the future, goods) under penalty of law !!!
Get it ?
The USA has been finally transformed completely ( Wickard v. Filburn was the BIG 1st step ) into a Statist, neo-marxist Socialist State.
This decision erases the aura of incompetence that hung over Obama. The people who react negatively were already going to vote for Romney.
I’m glad Romney has come out swinging on this. Now we have to get the information from conservatives who have actually READ the 2700 pages so that we can educate our fellow citizens. Armed with the truth of how Obamacare will affect them, and their families, we can convince them to join us in dumping the folks who voted for this monstrosity.
You are way too optimistic.
I am sorry you are unemployed. You will soon have lots more company and the downward spiral will tighten, steepen and accelerate.
I think you are guilty of wishful thinking.
I don’t see much hope for the future at all here.
IIRC, Romney said if elected he would give every state a waiver from Obamacare.
I respectfully disagree.
While Obama not being reelected is a “good” thing, Romney being elected is a “bad” thing. We are fried either way.
Besides, Romney is all talk. He won’t do jack to get rid of Obamacare. Also, it is sophistry to say a “state” can trample an individual’s rights, but not a central government. Trampling of rights is a violation...regardless of the level of government doing it.
Oh for a really good third party candidate that could save the GOP from itself!
There is also a possible platinum lining as well (IMO): the entire Bush dynasty may now metaphorically have their portraits flipped over to face the wall in perpetuity.
We the people own this country. Elections are our voice. The next election in November will be the only way to undo all this president/congress has done. The Supreme Court will not do our job for us. We must do the work ourselves.
We either elect people who enact the will of the people, or we live in tyranny. As of now, we have tyranny.
The Electorate will be bombarded with, “Romney will take away your Health Care” for two months before the Election.
The Rats will ride this like a surfer rides a wave.
Silver lining? More like pewter, graphite, or phrryite.
a) I don’t buy that Romney has “won the election”. It was going to be close before Robert’s treachery and it still will be.
b) Even if Romney does win, BIG DEAL. Willard INVENTED the individual mandate. He is a pro-abortion, anti-gun, pro-illegal, anti-traditional values, Big Government, LIBERAL SOCIALIST. As badly as Roberts stabbed American conservatives in the back, it will be nothing compared to what Romney will do if he is elected.
While better than Obama, it’s not a silver lining. More like tin. Maybe aluminum.
Any positive thoughts are quickly struck down by the negative - Nellie’s on this site. I’m with you, though. Obama is toast!

“Folks, there is some good news to this monstrosity: now Romney’s path to the White House is pretty much assured.”
No, that’s not the case. Rather, the election is now Gov. Romney’s to lose. If he runs a good, tight campaign, he will win. But if George H.W. Bush had run a good, tight campaign in 1992, we’d have avoided the regime of BJ Clinton.
Gov. Romney must now capitalize on this issue. It is a very winning issue. But up until now, he’s been fairly cautious in his approach.
He cannot only say what he is against. He will have to lay out, at least in broad terms, what he is for.
Gov. Romney can beat the anti-Christ. But it is NOT “pretty much assured.”
Not by a long shot.
I know that many posters here are against Gov. Romney. However, I would encourage you to think about it in this way: It is possible that Gov. Romney, upon being elected, may betray us in many ways. It is guaranteed that the anti-Christ will continue to betray us in every way.
There is some hope in electing Gov. Romney. There is only darkness, cataclysm, catastrophe in allowing the re-election of the anti-Christ.
Regrettably, to have even any hope, we must work, and work hard to elect Gov. Romney to the presidency (now I will go wash my typing fingers, which now feel dirty).
Wait wait, don’t tell me, Romney is going to win on that fact that it was his idea first!
I am not sure I agree completely with your conclusion. The conservative side is still populated with a great number who believe passionately that it is better to loose everything than to compromise on anything. We are so busy fighting with our neighbors in the backyard that we often allow our opponents to waltz unopposed through the front door. The Supreme Court just reminded us that elections have consequences and we can’t depend on them to rescue us from bad choices. In November we voters will have a choice between two men, Oboma or Romney. Regardless of what we do with our vote, we will be choosing one or the other.
