Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said Sunday he isn’t sorry he voted for Chief Justice John Roberts in the wake of his decision to uphold the Affordable Care Act.

“Are you sorry you voted for him?” asked CNN host Candy Crowley on “State of the Union.”

“No, I’m not. But I was extremely disappointed,” McConnell said.

He then quickly changed the topic to the court’s reasoning in decreeing the mandate valid under Congress’s taxing power.
