James Carville doesn’t think it would be good for the country, but if the Supreme Court decides to throw out the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, from a purely political angle, “the Republican Party will own the health care system for the foreseeable future.”

And then you can “go see Scalia when you want health care.”

Carville says, “I think this will be the best thing that has ever happened to the Democratic Party,” since health care costs are only going to go up and the Democrats can say that, unlike the Republicans, “we tried, we did something.” (Not that the Democratic effort delivered much in the way of cost control.) — PZS
