Well, that didn't take long:
"Obamacare Ruling May Have Just Killed State-Based Exchanges"
Indeed. Why would a state - any state - continue to throw money and other resources into maintaining their own HIX? Actually, there's a delicious irony here: Herr Gruber himself maintained that the law was written to encourage states to set up their own Exchanges (in order for their citizens to qualify for subsidies). Absent that bribe, er, motivation, the only rational action is to move your folks to 404Care.gov.
