That is not my contention.

They fought for a Bill of Rights to try and blunt the acknowledged effects of Article 6.

"They fought for a Bill of Rights to try and blunt the acknowledged effects of Article 6. "

Yet you say that it didn't. That it instead expanded the federal government powers. Specifically that federal courts could enforce it upon the states' dealings with their own citizens.

The anti-federalists would have to have been fools not to realize that- if it were true.
