Cower in fear..................

Democrats weathered the government shutdown by standing united. And even as ObamaCare stumbled through a rocky rollout, Democratic lawmakers remained largely in sync with the administration even as they expressed disappointment about the flawed health exchange website.
Yet ObamaCare's flaws have proven to be far more serious than a few poorly written lines of software code. Lingering problems with the site, combined with fresh concerns about rising premiums and Americans being pushed off their existing health care plans, have further eroded the law's political standing, prompting congressional Democrats to begin putting more daylight between themselves and the White House.
To be sure, some congressional Democrats have been calling for changes to the law for a full month. When Healthcare.gov's glitches threatened to prevent millions of uninsured Americans from obtaining coverage in time to avoid the individual mandate's penalty, squishy Democrats suggested punting the deadline, a concession the White House ultimately made.
The latest criticisms are far more pointed though, focusing not only a technological screw-up, but on the president's very credibility.
Obama vowed that people who liked their existing health plans would be able to keep them under ObamaCare, though that claim has proven to be false.

The panic is a few days old. Before that it was fear.
The best thing for the Repubs to do is simply delay, wait. No rescue bills nothing. Let the pot get a little hotter.
So, what are the ‘rats going to do tomorrow?
The understatement of the year.................
I can’t wait for the masses of millions of citizens with torches and pitchforks refusing to leave the WDC capital area. It’ll be just like in the old Frankenstein movie. Where’s my popcorn?
Cower in fear..................
I am sick and tired of this sugar-coating!
Obama's promise was a lie to America designed to destroy America!!
Yep. Hand ‘em more rope I say...
The Dems have nothing to worry about. The Republicans will find a way to turn this into a losing issue for themselves.
There is only one fix to stop this misery for everyone.
Repeal the damn bill!
Being smug while watching the Rats panic over Obamacare is like knowing you warned the captain of the Titanic of icebergs as the ship slips beneath the waves.
” I voted for Obama twice. I campaigned out my heart and soul for him twice. I went out on a limb and assure my friends and family and hundreds of strangers that they would get a better deal from ACA. Then today I got that letter, my insurance canceled. I found I can get what I need in insurance on that website for twice as much and twice the deductible. I was a fool. He betrayed our trust”
YES WE CAN LOL
The Democratic panic over ObamaCare has officially begun
Yep ... that seems to be an accurate statement!
The 2014 election cycle will be a slaughter for Dems.
Their problem is that this story isn’t a one month story like the shutdown, this story has tentacles and every American voter will either have rates skyrocket or lose care.
The Dems only salvation play - repeal now.
EXCELLENT point! Although, this won’t be apparent and remembered until well into next year when people get kicked off of “sub-standard” company plans.
Tie them to a large anvil. Or Anchor.
When your enemy is falling apart in front of you, the best thing to do is get out of their way.
