This is a desperation move. They WANT the focus of the next year to be partisan bickering. And not Obamacare. It’s their one remaining option to possibly hold enough Senate seats to keep a minimal majority.
The vast majority of the public has no idea how the filibuster works or how important it is. Thank the implosion of civics in public school education over the last 50 years.
No matter what the Dems try, they won't be able to get Obamacare shunted to the sidelines. I'm also betting that Obama has completely pi$$ed off the insurance companies, who will send cancellation notices on millions of employer-provided policies to customers a few weeks before the November 2014 mid-terms.
The website will never be fixed, nor will the security issues ever be resolved.
