Eh, that route flies pretty hard in the face of federalism. Supremacy Clause only comes into play where there's a conflict between state and federal law, so by all rights using that as justification is tortured because it's not a conflict between sovereigns but a question of scope. This should be especially true for the self-proclaimed originalists.

That said, expecting ideological consistency from folks of that persuasion is a laughable prospect.
