On Wednesday, CNN’s Dana Bash tweeted that all Senate Democrats up for re-election in 2014 will reportedly support a delay of Obamacare’s enrollment deadline.
The Democrats' push comes shortly after Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) recently launched a crusade against Obamacare. Cruz’s efforts and those of Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) showed the American people the president and Senate Democrats were unwilling to compromise on Obamacare, and the Democrats’ stubbornness resulted in a temporary partial government shutdown and a short-lived debt crisis scare.

Too late ‘rats. Only a total repeal is acceptable now.
This is now a TRAP!
There are legal cases with Obamacare, which are now before at least 3 different Courts.
I am concerned that any attempt now, by Democrats, to “Delay” Obamacare will really be used to fix LEGAL problems with the existing law, and to nullify the Court Cases concerning the Federal Exchange authority to give tax credits and impose penalties.
Same ass holes that voted for its placement.
Remove them from office.
this is what they call a “compromise”?? Something that helps the Democrats?
They will actually get credit for this delay, and republicans will be unwilling to explain they are only doing this to get past the election and that the disaster will hit after that.
Sorry to say it but that’s what’s going to happen.
The delay won’t matter as there won’t be doctors or hospitals or pharmacies willing to take this Obama and RAT debacle.
None of them want Obamacare to be an issue in 2014 mid-terms, so this way they think they can get ahead of it by initiating a delay and then taking the issue away from challengers.
They support Obamacare - just later.
And most (if not all) of these people will coast to easy re-election.
So what do you want me to say?
You mean they’re going to “strap bombs on their chest”? /s
No can do, Dems. Screw you.
Roberts' decision to uphold this turkey ranks right up there with Roe v Wade and Dredd Scott in the SCOTUS Hall of Infamy.
So...if the president and the Senate democrats had talked with Ted Cruz, we would have reached the same conclusion...without the shut down.
So...if Peter King had kept his big mouth shut, the GOP would have gained an enormous victory, instead of the humiliation.
Well, at least McConnell got his Kentucky Kickback.
White House just caved, they are saying they will delay by 6 weeks. LOL! They will never be ready in 6 weeks.
Obama does not have the authority.
Hello Congress! STAND UP.
Republicans really blew it demanding delay. There was no way senate was going to approve but now on record as wanting the delay. So 2014 voters won’t know how much their rates have gone up and they don’t keep their old plan.
The republicans had better get together and decide what really big thing they’ll take in exchange for bailing out the dumbocrates.
No, they do not. Let’s the games begin again!
Not 100% of them. Just the ones in competitive and red states.
Well this is interesting.....I’d love to hear Reid take on this....
I am sure as the sun will rise tomorrow that a delay will be opposed by Obama.... To delay means an actually real failure and not the little dance they have been doing to wait out a fix....
They cannot blame the tea party or GOP for this...
Would Reid throw Obama under the bus to try and save his Senate Majority seat by delaying it....?
I know Boehner will not stop him so the dems can’t blame them for the mess....
