Conservatives Should Be Happy About Losing King v. Burwell

The Supreme Court’s King v. Burwell ruling comes as a relief to Obamacare’s defenders. But it should also come as a relief to those who want to see it repealed and replaced. I happen to believe that the plaintiffs in King v. Burwell were right on the merits. Justice Antonin Scalia’s dissent makes more sense to me than Chief Justice John Roberts’s majority opinion. As a political matter, however, King v. Burwell would have left Obamacare’s opponents in an extremely precarious position for the simple reason that conservatives in Congress had failed to coalesce around a coherent post-King strategy in the months preceding the decision.
