Holy He-(double hockey sticks)!
Actually, crossed sticks are what the graph shows on the right-hand side.

Even the Washington Post is saying these are dismal numbers.

"Additional 975,407 people applied for insurance and deemed eligible but have not yet selected a plan - @Reuters"

source... as if it matters. That number is ridiculously skewed.

If you have healthcare through your job, you don’t have to sign up

OOOH, but how long will that last?

Only 27,794 Americans managed to push their way through the Obamacare website far enough to pick a commercial health-care plan that could work for them, according to the Obama administration.

That’s far below the goal of 500,000 completed sign-ups envisaged by President Barack Obama’s deputies prior to opening the tangled website.

Overall, 106,185 used the federal or state exchanges to select one of the government-compliant health-care plans for use in 2014, according to a Wednesday statement by the Department of Health and Human Services.

“$5 says it’s 100,000. They’re a bunch of pathological liars and they lie big.”

It really doesn't matter what the number is, inflated or not, because it's millions they need for this wreck to limp to the next service station and they aren't going to get there by January first. Then, the Sh!t is going to hit the fan when the morons who voted for these pathological liars find themselves completely uninsured with no hope of getting any insurance for the foreseeable future. Obama will be down below 30% within 60 days.

Thanks for the link...

The statement did not say how many of the 106,185 have confirmed their choice with an insurance company, or paid their first premiums.

The statement also did not describe the average monthly premiums of the selected plans.

Also, 975,407 people have gotten though the first few stages of the complex, crippled federal and state websites, but have not yet picked a plan.

It's almost 400,000 and considering every Medicaid cost $1400 per month Obama just added $7 billion a year to our debt.

HHS carefully using term “individuals who have selected marketplace plan” instead of “enrollments”

When the Washington Post comes out and says that everything conservatives SAID would happen regarding Obamacide has come to pass, I’ll listen to them. In the meantime, they’re just white noise to me.

Im betting the majority of those 100,000 people are those who signed up for medicaid..here in California they are practically begging you to sign up for Medical which is the same as Medicaid, Govt controlled health care

This is an unmitigated disaster on all levels.

You bet it is! And it's the best news I've seen in a while.

I remember a couple weeks ago watching Ezekiel Emanuel on Greta. He was quite smug and tried to show that he wasn't concerned about the lack of people signing up. He was saying they need 7 million to sign on but the October numbers didn't mean a thing. Yeah right. I wonder what good ole Zeke thinks of the numbers today. Ha!

with the massive deductible there is no reason to sign up at all

I have heard 6 to 12K deductibles- that’s crazy. I have not spent 6K per year for health care in decades
