...And this month, the New England Journal of Medicine is running a paper saying the ACA’s supporters “have good reason to worry” about an upcoming Supreme Court decision that could gut the law.

But on Wednesday—finally!—ACA defenders thought they may have caught a break. “Republican Governor Caught on Tape Demolishing the Legal Case Against Obamacare,” blared a ThinkProgress headline. In the piece, the site’s justice editor Ian Millhiser detailed comments that Wisconsin Gov. (and potential 2016 Republican presidential contender) Scott Walker made to the Wall Street Journal in 2013 about his interpretation of the president’s health care law.

Walker’s money quote is this: “But, in the end, there’s no real substantive difference between a federal exchange, or a state exchange, or the in-between, the hybrid, the partnership.”

But Cannon doesn’t think this means Walker gets off scot-free.

“He is the only Republican governor who refused to establish an exchange but still put forward a proposal that relied on there being subsidies in a federal exchange,” Cannon said. “That was a pretty questionable move.”

Isn't Slate a liberal rag? I would take anything from a liarberal rag with a grain of salt

BTW no misspelling or typo on the word liarberal
