The Court hears oral arguments Wednesday in its third high-profile challenge to the health care law, and both parties have a lot to lose.
President Obama and congressional Republicans both have a lot on the line Wednesday morning as the Supreme Court hears another high-profile challenge to Obamacare—its third in three years.
The justices are hearing oral arguments in King v. Burwell, a challenge to Obamacare's insurance subsidies—a case that could severely damage the health care law, wiping away most of the insurance coverage it has provided and making the unpopular individual mandate harder to enforce.
A loss for the White House would also be a stinging rebuke for Obama's signature domestic achievement, even as it has gotten up and running and is, for the most part, working.
But no matter how the Court rules, it will not wipe out the law entirely. As eager as Republicans are for anti-Obamacare ruling, it would put them in a difficult political spot: The greatest disruption would come in red states and 2016 battlegrounds, giving the party an obvious incentive to find a fix.

obummercare is not working . more people have insurance because they have to and with the premiums and the deductables . you still cany go to the doctor because you have to make the deductable. so it is like paying for no insurance.so why have it? obamas legacy is nothing but failure and poverty and hate.
My rates went up 20% and my benefits became less. It's not working for me.
The only reason more people have health insurance is because they lowered the standard to qualify for medicade so those people don't pay anything anyway but the taxpayers foot the bill.
