host: james simon, let me go back and compare this current court with the rehnquist court.st: the rehnquist court, not too many differences. the most important would be that justice alito has replaced justice o'connor. to the hughes court. chief justice hughes was a brilliant lawyer and had to deal with some very broad economic and social legislation from the new deal. there may be perils with what happens in 2012 and what happened during the 1930's when chief justice hughes was presiding. host: some have said this could be a defining legacy for the chief justice. guest: this is the most important challenge to broadbased economic legislation in 75 years, over 75 years since chief justice hughes was presiding. in the mid 1930's, the court first struck down broad base legislation and found a constitutional. that legacy continues -- has continued for the next 75 years. chief justice roberts is facing a similar challenge that chief justice hughes did in 1935, 1936, 1937. host: what impact could this have on the roberts court? guest: this will be a defining moments, to be sure.
