The final day of healthcare debate at Supreme Court
Things have gone from bad to worse for the Obama administration at the nation's highest court. For the second consecutive day, the court's conservative justices asked the administration's lawyers tough and sometimes hostile questions about the healthcare overhaul widely known as ObamaCare. Yesterday, it looked as if the law's individual mandate was in grave jeopardy. Today, it's the entire law.
