Yes, it's good that the partial birth abortion ban was upheld, but as the news accounts take pains to point out, the ban will affect very few abortions. The decision is a step in the right direction because it sets precedent for abortion restrictions, but it appears that there are still five justices on the Court who would vote to affirm Roe v. Wade if it were challenged now. Statistically Justice Stevens won't be around much longer and he's a pro-Roe vote, which is a big reason that Hillary Clinton shouldn't be elected president.
