Does she live in a bubble? Has she not seen any poll on the ACA?

Nancy Pelosi is so delusional that she likely believes what she says. She strikes me as so distanced from reality, so out-of-touch with the 99% have to go through, that she actually believes that Obamacare will be the single greatest achievement in the history of the world.

It's either that, or senility has caught up to her. At her age, it's safe to say there are mental issues setting in, but we'll have to pry that "dignified" paycheck of hers from her cold, dead hands before she does the right thing and just steps down.

Although I despise Ms. Pelosi, I think the GOP should NOT overestimate the usefulness of using ACA as a campaign issue. Just because polls show that most Americans don't like the ACA today doesn't mean that will drive their vote this fall. Obama isn't running again. So each candidate has to decide if the ACA is a useful campaign issue against his/her opponent.

I happen to agree with you here. Since ACA hasnt affected most of the public yet, (i.e. the employer mandate has continued to be delayed), I think overplaying the damage it'll cause pre damage, wont be understood until after it kicks in fully and people will get tired of hearing about it and tune it out.

There is a reason I have called the Purple Pill and Martini Lady. But she is very much aware ACA is going to be the boat anchor that makes them lose the Senate and very possible the 2016 election.

Did she say" I can't wait to read the bill" the Democrats passed by shot measure?


Really goes to show and both parties hopefully will learn is, "a well thought bill that both parties and Houses can agree on is the better way!

Personally, I hope you guys keep it up because it belly flopped in the most recent special election. Now Republicans still won in a heavily Republican district but only barely so, no, it isn't a very strong issue for you guys.

Then why all the delays? Do Democrats hate americans and want to delay the wonderful benefits which exist for them?
