"Obama had a much larger win so Supreme Court will not want to over-rule a much larger electoral win."

Why would the Supreme Court be concerned with electoral margins?
I thought the court's responsibilities had to do with the letter of the law.

Not any supreme court that has ever existed. Even Scalia has had his weak moments like Bush vs Gore which was not constitutional, read Levins book.
