As one on the more Conservative side of politics, I really do not understand the endgame of the suit. If they would have won, it does not invalidate the law, it just screws over a bunch of people that were just trying to use the exchanges as they were advertised. Its not like these people are going to be angry that the Democrats are terrible at drafting the law (due to how it was passed, the law was riddled with bad drafting). They are going to be pissed at the people that drove the suit. And its not like the Republicans have a viable replacement sitting there to fix it. The only quick fix would have been to pass a correction to the existing law (maybe pass a temporary one - but the subsidy to Drs for medicare (Doc Fix) has been "temporary" since like 1997). So now you either have a bunch of angry voters and a nasty issue or you force your party to vote FOR the very thing you do not like.
Very spite/nosian.
