A top legal analyst predicted Tuesday that the Obama administration's healthcare reform legislation seemed likely to be struck down by the Supreme Court.

Jeffrey Toobin, a lawyer and legal analyst, who writes about legal topics for The New Yorker said the law looked to be in "trouble." He called it a "trainwreck for the Obama administration."

"This law looks like it's going to be struck down. I'm telling you, all of the predictions, including mine, that the justices would not have a problem with this law were wrong," Toobin said Tuesday on CNN. "I think this law is in grave, grave trouble."

I'll believe it when I see it. ...

Sad but true.

I don't agree with everything in ObamaCare,and I don't trust Obama, but I believe that Justice Kennedy, who seems to have his own doubts about the bill, will be the 5th Justice needed to pass ObamaCare, because I believe that Kennedy-—although I will disagree with him-—will reason that this bill is what is best for all Americans.

Dental Care: Does ObamaCare cover dental work and routine visits to the dentist?

Eye Exams, New Eyeglasses: Does it cover eye exams and the purchase of new glasses?

Thanks.
