A federal appeals court on Thursday dismissed one of the highest-profile challenges to President Obama's healthcare reform law.

The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals said Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli (R) does not have a legal right to sue over the law's requirement that most people buy insurance. The court vacated a lower court's ruling in the case and instructed the lower court to dismiss the suit.

This should be seen as a good thing for those who want the law and those who want it repealed. This ruling will only send the legal challenge tumbling toward the Supreme Court even quicker, one would hope.

Let's just get the undercards out of the way and get to the title match at the Supreme Court.

Agreed, it's heading there no matter what.
