Well, Texas Judge is right. The Mandate is unconstitutional, but didn’t they argue at the Supreme Court that it wasn’t a mandate, but a tax?

Actually no. This judge followed the SCOTUS ruling precisely.
quote:
When the Supreme Court upheld Obamacare in 2012, a majority of the justices agreed that the provision forcing individuals to purchase health insurance was unconstitutional without the tax penalty. The commerce power,Chief Justice Roberts explained, gives Congress the power to regulate commerce, and not to compel commerce, as Obamacare does. Furthermore, Congress and the Obama administration made it clear that the individual mandate was an essential component of the law, without which the remainder of the law would not have been enacted.
Congress repealed the individual mandate/tax, which was the only thing holding it up.

The judge ruled that the law's individual mandate is unconstitutional, and that because the mandate cannot be separated from the rest of the law, the rest of the law is also invalid.

As I predicted all along, Obamacare has been struck down as an UNCONSTITUTIONAL disaster! Now Congress must pass a STRONG law that provides GREAT healthcare and protects pre-existing conditions. Mitch and Nancy, get it done!

Wow, but not surprisingly, ObamaCare was just ruled UNCONSTITUTIONAL by a highly respected judge in Texas. Great news for America!

Since healthcare was the surprise key issue strongly favoring Democrats in the midterm elections, this will ensure that it remains the front and center issue for the next election cycle.

The Republicans held both the house and Senate for 8 years because of Obamacare. People want healthcare reform but theres no doubt Obamacare was a disaster and it's not shock given what happened to insurance costs for middle class families.
Middle class struggles to pay for their insurance, the do nothings get free dirt cheap insurance.

It means that it will be overruled, the same 5 justices that ruled the mandate constitutional are still there.
Wrong. They ruled the mandate was constitutional because it was a 'tax' and not a penalty. Well, the 'tax' no longer exists. The SC will hear an entirely different case.

Now the race is one to see if the libtards can get it back to SCOTUS before Ruthie croaks.
