I'm assuming Mary Landrieu voted for ObamaDon'tCare. I wonder if she shares Gruber's sentiments.

Perhaps Bill Cassidy can pose this question to Louisiana voters.

You might be interested in a quote from Gruber. (2013)

“I think it would be a real substantive mistake to do the Landrieu bill,” says MIT health economist Jon Gruber, a supporter of the Affordable Care Act.

“I don’t feel I know.” Jon Gruber agrees. “I don’t know how much higher premiums go,” he sighs. “I really don’t.”

This was the keep-me-in-the-Senate political cover bill by Landrieu. Essentially the same thing Obama fix that Barry proposed and Gruber was talking about in an interview as “political cover”.
