0bamaCare is a very big runaway freight train and cannot be stopped from crashing spectacularly by either Republicans or Dems or both together. By its own design it directly affects nearly every person and every business in the nation so its unfolding consequences cannot be ignored, hidden or spun away with shallow sophistry.

Well, that's not a bad way to put it either!!! I just went a bit further into the "why's" part of it. :-)

As for the need(?) to keep the spotlight on Obama and the Dems' role in all this, you may be right. I really hope so! However, I have GREAT respect (fear?) of the Dems' ability to duck, weave, lie, shift blame, and, if need be, throw Obama under the bus, absolving the greater part of the Party from blame. Ie., "this implementation is not what we voted for!" This worries me because they have the media on their side, as well as a sizeable chunk of the populace who would still believe (almost like a religion) they would be benefitted by a "done right" ObamaCare, at least initially. Granted, that might wear off if enough of this group had their identities stolen, lose their jobs, etc., but, then again, that group for the most part would not be the targets an identity thief would go after, or they don't have jobs.

Then there is another powerful group who simply want the (additional) power and consequences be damned.

But I digress. I agree with you about the uproar; what Conservatives need to do, IMO, is make sure the blame goes to the deserving: every last blankety-blank one of them.

Ah, the Democrats have done a wonderful job of getting blame imputed to them. There’s no way to hide what Obamacare is, and they are loud and proud about it. The quieter the GOP, perhaps, the better. Even the slow will begin to see that the Democrat line of attempting to deflect blame is “The Republicans did not fix our foolishness!”

And then the GOP will say “Here’s the fix for your foolishness. Abolish it.”

I can characterize it with metaphors but you laid it out in a very matter of fact manner. It was refreshing to me to see that done so well.

I fear and respect their powers of deception too but I don't think they will be able to get a handle on this. They wanted 0bamaCare to be big and far reaching and it is. They created a Frankenstein monster and arrogantly tattooed their own name on its forehead. They distributed leaflets everywhere bragging that they built it. The villagers are not going to be fooled or appeased about its origin however simple minded they may be.
