In an obvious attempt to help the Democrats preserve their Senate majority, the “reporters” of the legacy news media have been hard at work promoting a new Obamacare meme. The Los Angeles Times assisted in the launch of this propaganda campaign early this month with a piece titled, “Obamacare loses some of its campaign punch for Republicans.” The evidence provided by the article’s authors in support of this claim consists primarily of a July study involving GOP advertising: “The percentage of broadcast television ads focused on Obamacare dipped in the spring, according to a study conducted by Kantar Media/CMAG.”
This unremarkable fact has since been gleefully reported by countless “news” outlets as if it constitutes a tectonic shift in the dynamics of the midterm election cycle. The Washington Post parroted the party line thus: “Obamacare disappearing as major issue.” Salon breathlessly announced, “GOP surrenders on Obamacare.” Bloomberg chimed in with a piece titled, “Obamacare Losing Power as Campaign Weapon in Ad Battles.” The latter provides a helpful quote from a doubtlessly objective political science professor, Andrew Taylor of North Carolina State University, who opines that Obamacare “isn’t the kind of issue it was.”
The voters didn’t get that memo. They revile the health care law more than ever.

People are starting to get their renewal notices and premiums are going up.
The employer mandate (delayed how many times now?) will kick in after the elections, but employees will be made aware of company changes soon. That will affect millions.
A huge court case regarding the constitutionality of federal subsidies in states that haven’t set up their own exchanges is still brewing.
Obamacare is the gift that keeps on giving.
<><> Ask Dummycrats when Obama is dropping by to campaign for them (cackle).
<><> Ask Dummycrats why they voted to subsidize O/Care by decimating Medicare Advantage for seniors.
<><> Ask Dummycrats why the White House calculatedly kept the gruesome details to itself while egging on loyal lock-stepping Democrats to vote for O/Care.
<><> Ask Dummycrat why the WH lied to Americans in a way so specific, it showed they knew exactly what to spin and how......via the infamous "If you like your health-care plan, you can keep your health-care plan, period."
<><> Ask Dummycrats why they carried on for the next three years making believe they'd actually read the ACA bill and pretending they understood its implications.
<><> Ask Dummycrats why they're so surprised by grassroots complaints about O/Care from constituents.
<><> Ask Dummycrats why they treat voters as if they just fall off a turnip truck.

ID THEFT SCAM---DUMMYCRATS RUNNING AS CONSERVATIVES (DUPING VOTERS TO SAVE OBAMA'S ***) Breitbart.com reports that b/c of an increasingly hostile political landscape, Democrats are resorting to whining---asking voters to believe they have suddenly "seen the light" and are now (gasp) conservatives.
In districts across the country, Democrats are campaigning as "true believers' in tax cuts, balanced budgets and for rolling back big government's harmful regulations. The Dummycrats are so desperate, thry're even bleating about guns, fracking and coal....trying to appeal to the conservative heartland.
The list of Democrats carving out more conservative positions is too lengthy to mention. In fact, breitbart.com reports, it would be noteworthy to find any Democrat in a competitive election running on the platform espoused by the DNC, Harry Reid or Nancy Pelosi.
Opportunistic Dem candidates are marching in lockstep--- separating themselves from Dummycrat-ism when facing actual voters.
As conservatives have always observed, Dummycrat-ism is not even a coherent party....just a collection of hyphenates.....and expedient alliances of special interest groups....all expecting payback.
This is an old Dummycrat trick---from the conniving shallow mind of Chicago-land kingpins of political crime. Obama suck-up teeny tiny Rahm Emanuel actually dreamed up the campaign con.
===========================================
WRAP-UP: Stupid Dummycrats can run wearing Reagan masks, for all that matters----the prog/nitwit in the WH keeps reminding voters about the Dummycrat-fashioned disaster that has befallen our beloved country.
The most unsavory was Landrieu's $4.3 billion "Louisisana Purchase."
THE PAPER TRAIL IS HUGE Sen Landrieu (Scumocrat-LA) sold her aye vote in what Forbes Magazine dubbed "The 'Louisiana Purchase" that included a massive $4.3 Billion to Landrieu
FORBES REPORTED the Democrats’ nailed Landrieu’s support for Obamacare w/ a greenback bribe. Landrieu, critics believe, pledged her vote in exchange for some $200 million more additional federal funds for Louisiana. Except that, due to a drafting error, the law ended up giving Louisiana $4.3 billion: more than twenty times the assigned amount. MORE HERE http://www.forbes.com/fdc/welcome_mjx.shtml
===============================================
BACKSTORY In the fall of 2009, Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) was trying to get the necessary 60 Dimocrat votes to pass the Affordable Care Act. He needed every Dim on board, which gave waffling senators a great deal of leverage. In Landrieu's case, she connivingly saw that selling her aye vote could get her maybe $200 million federal dollars. Obama complied. Reid chalked up another vote for Obamacare. But not the measly $200 million but $4.3 billon was attached to the Obamacare bill earmarked for Landrieu.
=================================================
How $4.3 billion to Landrieu was calculatedly attached to the Obamacare bill, and how Obama and Reid failed to catch and fix it, is yet another indictment of the Obamacare atrocity.
The $4.3 billion handoff to Landrieu should be investigated as an indication of how EVERY Democrat came to vote for Obamacare....and how tax dollars were laundered to help elect more lock-stepping Democrats.
The Progressives know that if they lose Obamacare they have lost hundreds of ways to control the “citizens” of the NWO. Control over what you can eat, drink, exercise, your weight, whether you can smoke or drink or not, your bank accounts, your medical records, etc...I am willing to bet they would even advocate to have implants put into every citizen to monitor their movements and activities (except themselves of course).
Obamacare was NEVER about providing healthcare. Burn it to the ground and repeal it...
Mr. Catron is right. We all know that.
The Republican consultants, however, are the dumbest group on the planet. They will probably fall for it.
Obamacare is still a very effective tool for republicans as well as a host of other issues, now if only republicans will hammer the rats with them.
Nope, it's an economic weapon of mass destruction. It will be dismantled.
