Judge McConnell on the Potential Unconstitutionality of the “Slaughter Solution” for the House Voting on Health Care

Don’t miss this analysis by Judge McConnell.
For those who don’t know, Michael McConnell (now at Stanford, and formerly a 10th Circuit judge) is one of the smartest constitutional scholars in the U.S. He’s not ideologue (despite the fact that this appears in the opinion page of the WSJ). If I were working for the Democrats in Congress, I would take his concerns here very seriously. Could it really be that the Democrats want to give the Supreme Court a way to strike down the health care bill on a technicality, without even having to reach the merits?
