The House’s funding measure will keep the government open until mid December.

A one year delay will make it an issue again right before the election next year...next October with the election in December.

The 2.5 month funding, though, has me puzzled. Wouldn't that give them the chance to revisit funding through the back door? If not, then I don't understand why not, because funding ObamaCare requires a certain level of spending, and if that level of spending is not approved, then all heck will break out if Obama tries to move social security or defense money over to Obamacare funding.

I think it would. Perhaps they will try defunding certain components. They should pick a few that are essential to the entire thing but so "in the weeds" legislative-wise that the low information voters would zone out when the democrats squawk about it.
