284. The thinking is that CEOs would be leery of a very public backlash affecting their bottom line...

... a là the Whole Foods' witless CEO dissing HCR and causing Obama supportive liberals to go viral re: a boycott of the chain (something I and my many organic foodie friends signed onto and are still observing because the CEO's non-apology did not satisfy).

Anyway, as I said, the particulars haven't been worked out yet but the President and Congressional Dems are going to do their best to minimize the effect of the SCOTUS decision. I anticipate legislation to be passed at least a year prior to 2012.

The good news? So far, the RNC hasn't raked in a ton of corporate monies. Corporations are understandably cautious about being on the losing PR side of a debate.
