What is especially disappointing, and hard to understand, is why Roberts decided that he had to leave Obamacare in tact, and why he proceeded from that position and that position only. If he were really just concerned about the Court and its legitimacy, couldn’t he have tried the other path? Bringing somebody like Sotomeyer over to the conservative side? Seems obvious from this article that he really only saw 1 choice, which was to upload Obamacare. That is a bit curious, and will certainly lend itself toward conspiracy theories that somebody had something on him.
Don't you mean, "somebody has something on him"?
This does not bode well for the future.
