Poll: Will Supreme Court Decision Help Obama's Campaign?

Do you think President Obama's re-election efforts have been helped by court's ruling?

Some officials felt Republican challenger Mitt Romney will benefit from conservative momentum following the decision.

POLL: Should the Supreme Court Overturn Obama’s Health Care Law?

The country's highest court is set to rule Thursday on the Affordable Care Act.

It’s an epic decision that could change the way healthcare is approached in the United States. The Supreme Court is scheduled to rule Thursday, according to Huffington Post, on the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act, signed into law March 23, 2010.

Take our poll and let us know!
