Democrats seem like the dog that chased cars its whole life and finally caught one--now what?
The Affordable Care Act is too toxic to implement. The mandatory standardization of all policies around very high standards, once said to be a key linchpin of the ACA, and a clause used to insult all prior coverages and the intelligence of the people who liked their policies, may now be DEFERRED to the end of the Obama presidency.
Please God can we start to work on tearing down the parts that Obama has left standing, and rebuilding a rational, workable system instead? One that perhaps provides actual care to the uninsured?
The Dems really don't even want to talk about the ACA/Obamacare for the 2014 mid terms. They "moved on" and say it's working.
Now they want to talk about jobs and the economy....Wow, just Wow. Shouldn't we have been talking about jobs and the economy back in mid 2009 when all this started?

The ACA is working for health care like Three Mile Island worked for nuclear power.
Thankfully, Republicans have made it their mission in 2014 to put Obamacare on the top of their platform. The rats in the Democratic Party will not be able to escape the wrath coming their way.
Just ask Kay Hagan.

The Koch brothers have a seemingly bottomless pot of cash this election year — and no one knows it better than Sen. Kay Hagan.
Americans for Prosperity, a group co-founded by the conservative billionaires, has already dropped $8.2 million on TV, radio and digital ads in an effort to defeat the North Carolina Democrat. According to sources tracking media buys, the group has so far spent more in North Carolina than all Democratic outside groups in every Senate race in the country — combined.

With Republicans eyeing at least six seats to take back the Senate, North Carolina has emerged as one of their best shots, with Hagan vulnerable from the onslaught of televised attacks over her support for Obamacare and with the state showing big swings in public opinion since Obama won the state six years ago.
Billionaire conservative activists Charles and David Koch plan to run advertisements through one of their political groups, Americans for Prosperity, attacking Sen. Mary Landrieu for her support of the Affordable Care Act.
The New York Timesreports that Landrieu is one of three Democratic U.S. Senators the Kochs are targeting in a $3.5 million advertising campaign on health care reform. Landrieu and the two other Senators -- Mark Begich of Alaska and Kay Hagan of North Carolina -- all hail from states that supported Republican Mitt Romney over President Barack Obama in 2012. The three Democrats also face tough reelection campaigns in 2014.
I thought I was the only one who knew what a Pyrrhic Victory was!
