it helps the right in the long-run considering narrowing the scope of the commerce clause. Obama may have won the battle but the establishment right/corps could win the war.

No.. There's now a new precedent. that there is NO LIMIT to the taxing power of the Federal government.. Up to and including the ability to compel economic activity.

"You want to buy a house?"

"No.. "

"Okay, the tax on that will be $12,000.00"

And the commerce clause is already so elastic that there's little concern about curtailing that with this ruling.
