I think most of the comments here point toward the reason rats once again voted for Obamacare. Follow the money.

Not many of us put principle ahead of our livelihoods, and arrogant senators, drunk with power are rarely among such people.

Obama controls the DNC and DSCC.

Not a single senate rat voted against Obamacare because it would be political suicide to lose campaign funding support. Go along with Obama, and campaign funds will flow. Oppose Him and expect to be primaried.

To whom are senators accountable? The people of their states? As this week’s showdown over Obamacare funding illustrates, rat senators, who know that Obamacare is strangling our economy and destroying health services, will continue to support the man who controls the campaign funds that will get them reelected.

Isn’t democracy grand?

Then let's hope they pour endless sums of money into losing campaigns because there are going to be many Obamacare supporting elected Democrats in red, purple, AND blue states who are going to have their feet held to the fire next year and ARE going to lose.

Should it really surprise me?

Coast2CoastAM had the topic last night called Alternative Media Special. The email that I received about it said...

‘Filling in for George, John B. Wells hosted a discussion on alternative media with a panel of guests appearing throughout the night. In the first hour, journalist Abby Martin detailed the trouble she got in for asking Senator Rand Paul about his endorsement of Mitt Romney. After the confrontation with Paul the Capitol police called her employer and threatened to have her arrested for stalking and harassment, Martin revealed. She said the experience taught her how things really work in D.C., noting how the political establishment and corporate media apparatus have created an environment there in which only vetted pre-approved appearances are allowed. “[The media] might as well be state run,” she chided.’

The more I learn about how DC is run the more justified I am in calling it the District of Criminals.
