There will be no delays for the individual mandate. Obama will not allow Ted Cruz to be vindicated.

There are hundreds of thousands of people loosing their coverage on December 31, with only an expensive replacement that isn't really available.

A delay will be unworkable for insurance companies because they were setting their rates based upon the the mandate.

The government isn't meeting it's requirements, all the special interests have gotten their waivers, Congress has kept their employer contribution with a directive from OPM to buy gold level plans. The only group that is still living under the effect of the law for 2014 is the group this law was supposed to benefit, and those people are getting screwed.

I personally don't think Obama will go for a one year delay, because his intention all along was to pick up those Medicaid extension and extremely subsidized people into his welfare voting block. Despite their income, many of those people aren't on public assistance, but now they will be.
