Like its been said before, the best case outcome is the Supremes refusing to hear this case and sticking with the status quo.

It ony takes 4 justices to agree to hear a case and put it on the docket. I fervently hope that Kennedy and Roberts can have enough sense to stay away from this case and join with the liberal wing of the court who are absolutely right on this issue. I also suspect that the Solictor General will also tell the court they should refuse this case as well when they consult him for his opinion and hear the views of the Obama administration and thus the federal gov't as a whole.

the real question is if thomas would push to hear it just so he could write his typical "frick the interpretation of the commerce clause" concurrence/dissent, or if he'd push to have this case shelved to further his principles (without the publicity)
