Today is the second day of oral arguments before the Supreme Court about the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act, President Obama’s health-care-reform law. Over at Daily Comment, Jeffrey Toobin writes about how all this might end:>

Where do the justices stand now? The four Democratic appointees—Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor, and Elena Kagan—seem like sure votes to uphold the law. Clarence Thomas is a sure vote to invalidate the law. Anthony Kennedy is the Democrats’ best bet to join with them, although Chief Justice John Roberts, Antonin Scalia, and Samuel Alito do not seem out of the question as possibilities.

But who are these Justices? See the slide show above to read The New Yorker’s Supreme Court Profiles and other coverage—and then make your own guess about which way they might vote.

Update: After a Supreme Court hearing that he called a “train wreck” for the President, Jeffrey Toobin said he now believes the justices will “strike down the individual mandate.”
