"Roberts played the long game by putting this back in Obama’s lap, and making him and the legislature, and hopefully, we who will vote, the final arbiters of this matter."

Swatting 0bama/Roberts Care down would have had the same effect.

Did you read the part of Roberts’ opinion that called for smaller government?

Would being partison and voting against Obamacare accomplished that? I don’t think so.

Roberts also let state opt out.
Tied it to the commerce clause

Tied it to the dims and a tax.

That wouldn’t have happened if they had just voted against it.

Read the thread that compares Madison and Roberts.

There are also references in some articles to the Marshall Court and the Roberts Court. They both forced liberal presidents to toe the conservative line.......stay tuned.
