To the casual observer it makes Obama look weak.
In 2014, the Dems will need a lot more than the Upton bill for cover.
A vulnerable incumbent should be crushed with the full weight of the Obamacare debacle.
My experience says that the democrats control the media and that the people will believe them more often than not. So, with this simple vote supporting “keep it if you like it”, they have laid the groundwork for an entire series of ads and talking points that will support them on every network, in every newspaper, and on a huge number of websites.
Wait and see.
