“With a revived and engaged electorate, ObamaCare will now be the issue for the next few years.”
As the ObamaCare “tax” is implemented, I hope this is an issue that comes back to haunt the Dems. However, after reading about the role subsidies play, I suspect that they’ve done their homework and 50.1% of people will end up with “free healthcare” (enough to guarantee a permanent majority at the polls). They’ve been cleaning the Repubs’ clocks when it comes to elections over the last few years, and with their media saturating ignorant people 24/7 they will continue to do so.
"50.1% of people will end up with “free healthcare”
Better go tell the people over at DU and KOS because they can't find anyone who will get it for free. They're all complaining about losing their plans and how much the deductibles are.
Amidst all the blather about Republicans going over the cliff and taking the world with them, a tantalizing bit of truth was spoken on today's Morning Joe. Doomsaying notwithstanding, the GOP is actually positioned to do OK in 2014." "Making the comment particularly surprising was its source: Barack Obama's former senior adviser himself—David Axelrod."
Then there is liberal Nate Silver who thinks we have a good chance of taking the Senate in 2014.
A race-by-race analysis of the Senate, in fact, suggests that Republicans might now be close to even-money to win control of the chamber after next year’s elections. Our best guess, after assigning probabilities of the likelihood of a G.O.P. pickup in each state, is that Republicans will end up with somewhere between 50 and 51 Senate seats after 2014, putting them right on the threshold of a majority.
I guess we'll have to wait and see but I feel pretty good about 2014.
“They’ve been cleaning the Repubs’ clocks when it comes to elections over the last few years...”
Then explain how the Republicans control 26 states while the rats control 11. Living in liberal New Jersey is overwhelming your reasoning faculties.
Someone has to pay the subsidy. It is a simple matter to demonstrate the lost jobs that are part of the cost of those who DO pay for the subsidy. Class warfare only goes so far when one finally wakes up and realizes they will never get anywhere with their “free” healthcare that is not set up that way at all. Like having insurance for a hotel room, that is then taken over by the govt.— how much would a room cost that way? The subsidy serves those on top— this is just like the ponzi scheme of social security. And like europe— headed for disaster and 3rd world.
