Here’s your problem: My approach would delay the Obamacare financial crisis until after the 2016 election when we will have a Republican President...

You ASSUME that we will have a Republican president. People who assume and place all of their bets on the table that they are positively going to win normally are broke after 1 play.

Some lessons are never learned. We ASSUMED during the last election when we gave the Republicans a majority in both houses that they would represent those who put them there and look what happened. We ASSUMED that the new Speaker of the House would be a true patriot and conservative and look what we got.

All of us who wasted our votes in the last election were raped by those we put into office with orders not to COMPROMISE ( since they were now the majority ) and “ right out of the gate “ they forgot they were in charge and immediately went back to their favorite “ back-stabbing “ favorite tactic...COMPROMISE.

We ASSUMED and all that we got was a mouth full of feathers.

It is not that I assume the GOP will win in 2016 as that I aim to assure that will be the case. Consider that Obama is the most potent figure that the Dems and the Left have. An all or nothing confrontation over Obamacare before the 2016 election gives Obama an issue to grandstand on and — with the news media's help — an opportunity to blame the GOP for Obamacare’s problems and to energize his adherents. I am hard put to imagine any rationale as to how triggering such a controversy in time for the 2016 election would help the GOP nominee.
