Inside the Supreme Court III
As the U.S. Supreme Court wrapped up over six hours of arguments on the Obama health law on Wednesday afternoon, all sides left the courtroom without a clear idea of how the Justices might rule. "The idea all along was to get our opportunity to present our case to the ...
Supreme Court Wrap
The U.S. Supreme Court wrapped up three days of arguments on the Obama health law on Wednesday with no clear road map on what the justices might do with the controversial law. The first arguments on Wednesday centered on what the justices should do if the individual mandate was to ...
Supreme Court - Day Three
The U.S. Supreme Court struggled on Wednesday with the question of what to do with the underlying Obama health law, if the individual mandate is struck down by a majority of the Justices. Justice Antonin Scalia argued that if you "take the heart out" of the law, then the rest ...
Supreme Court - Day Three Preview
After Justice Anthony Kennedy made everyone sit up in the U.S. Supreme Court and realize that the individual mandate of the Obama health law could be in real danger, today the justices examine the next logical step - if the mandate is thrown out, what happens to the rest of ...

Inside the Supreme Court II
I received some critical emails last week after I talked on the radio about how excited I was to cover the three days of historic health care arguments before the U.S. Supreme Court. You need to be "solemn" about it, one woman wrote, chiding me for showing News Exuberance. But ...
The Solicitor General's Tough Day
There was no reason to think that Tuesday's arguments before the U.S. Supreme Court would be an especially difficult day for Solicitor General Donald Verrilli. His performance on Monday had been solid and the same was expected today. But from the outset, Verrilli seemed nervous, as he coughed during one ...
Individual Mandate in Trouble
After two years of debate, the central question of the constitutionality of the individual mandate in the Obama health law went before the U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday, and what emerged was the distinct possibility that a majority of justices could rule against the mandate. Legal experts have been wondering ...

Supreme Court - Day Two Preview
After a first day of arguments which was more like an exhibition season scrimmage, the U.S. Supreme Court now moves into the meat of the legal fight over the Obama health law, with two hours of arguments on the constitutionality of the individual mandate. We saw some skirmishing in the ...
Inside the Supreme Court
I spent well over three hours in the Supreme Court on Monday morning, a good chunk of it waiting for the Justices to start arguments on the Obama health law, which meant a lot of down time and some silly moments. Here's my view from the inside - it's meant ...
Supreme Court - First Day
While the U.S. Supreme Court set aside 90 minutes for argument on the first day of its review of the Obama health reform law, it did not seem like there was an appetite among the Justices to side step the essential question of the constitutionality of the law itself. Instead, ...

That Wacky GOP Delegate Math
The Louisiana Primary gave Rick Santorum an overwhelming victory on Saturday over Mitt Romney, as Santorum won all but one parish in the Bayou State - but his advantage in the delegate math was small - depending on how you read the Louisiana GOP rules. The one thing everyone agreed ...
Gingrich Keeps Going
Even after being shutout for delegates in Louisiana - where Newt Gingrich spent over seven days campaigning - there was no hint from Newt Gingrich that he is looking to get out of the Republican race for the White House. Gingrich's schedule for the next week featured multiple days of ...
Supreme Court - Day One Preview
The U.S. Supreme Court begins on Monday a historic three day series of arguments on the Obama health reform law by examining one way the Justices might avoid making a decision on the merits of the law, courtesy of a rather obscure statute from the 19th century. The question on ...

Supreme Court Schedule
The U.S. Supreme Court will hear six hours of arguments spread over three days on the Obama health law, the most amount of time spent on one case in almost fifty years. Here is the rundown of each day's arguments, with the names of those who will be making the ...
Order in the Court
As a reporter, covering a case at the U.S. Supreme is one of the cooler assignments you can have in Washington, D.C., but it is certainly a throwback to the past. In other words, no Tweeting, no live blogging, no internet, no Facebook status updates, just a reporter and his or ...

Supreme Court Ticket
Christmas came early for this reporter when the email arrived from the U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday confirming that I have a seat with my name on it for the three days of arguments on the Obama health reform law. "This note is to confirm a press seat for the ...
Santorum Looks for Bayou Win
After losing ground to Mitt Romney this week in Puerto Rico and Illinois, Rick Santorum has the chance to win back some delegates and momentum, as voters in Louisiana go to the polls on Saturday. While Santorum leads in all of the recent polls, which show him gaining momentum, only ...

Romney Takes Charge
It was a different Mitt Romney on Wednesday afternoon in the suburbs of Baltimore, Maryland, a day after an easy victory in the Illinois Primary, as the GOP frontrunner seemed to be connecting with his audience and actually took questions from the crowd. Romney had several reasons to be happy ...

Romney Wins Illinois
It was an easy night for Mitt Romney, who finally got to enjoy a Tuesday primary night for the first time in weeks, as he cruised to victory in Illinois over Rick Santorum, wining by over 11 percent. Romney built a big lead in Chicago and the rest of Cook ...
GOP Delegate Math
Who says every delegate doesn't matter? While the focus today is on the 54 delegates in Illinois, Mitt Romney gained in the race for the GOP nomination after Republicans in Wyoming awarded Romney an extra delegate and stripped one from Rick Santorum. The maneuvering came after a dispute during the ...
