The political genius of John Roberts - Ezra Klein
[B]y voting with the conservatives on every major legal question before the court, he ... furthered the major conservative projects before the court — namely, imposing limits on federal power...If, in the future, Roberts leads the court in cases that more radically constrain the federal government’s power to regulate interstate commerce, today’s decision will help insulate him from criticism. And he did it while rendering a decision that Democrats are applauding.
