With millions of Americans receiving Obamacare-induced health insurance cancellation letters, several of President Barack Obama’s supporters are experiencing sticker shock and expressing regret.
“I was really shocked,” said Colorado Obamacare supporter Cathy Wagner upon receiving her cancellation notice. “All of my hopes were sort of dashed. Oh my gosh, President Obama, this is not what we hoped for, it’s not what we were told.”
Wagner says the same coverage will now cost her and her husband 35% more and that they will have a higher deductible.
“Our premium for next year is going up to over $1,000 a month for two of us and we’re two fairly healthy individuals,” said Wagner.
Wagner is not alone. According to the Colorado Division of Insurance, 250,000 people in Colorado have already lost their health plans in the last few months.
Obama supporters on the West Coast are experiencing similar surprises. In San Francisco, husband and wife Lee Hammack and JoEllen Brothers, who describe themselves as “cradle Democrats,” were alarmed when they received their insurance cancelation notice informing them that their previous $550 monthly premium would now be almost $1,300, their deductible would be higher, they would pay higher hospital costs, and their out-of-pocket maximum would increase.

NOW will they understand WHY they are called “low information voters?”
this is what happens when 50% of Americans can’t see thru people. God, in 2008 I already knew that everything I heard at his rallies/speeched were lies. yah right! millions and millions of Americans just can’t wait to buy Solar Panels!
Saying that someone is hit with a higher premium and a higher deductible doesn’t really convey how bad the double whammy is, when they just state the premium change. I figure that you’ve got to add another 30 to 50% to count for the fact that short of a disaster, you won’t hit the higher deductible, so in most years it acts like an added cost.
How do these folks know what the cost is if the website isn’t working?
No biggie. Obama and their media henchmen are already blaming the insurance companies and that will be the narrative going into 2014. Political ad voiceovers will say how much money the insurance companies are profiting from their victims and how Obama is “fighting back” against their excessive greed. These same clowns who got the letters will vote for the Rat.
Liberals on the web claimed that Ziegler cherry-picked these clueless Obama voters for this video and that they are not representative of Obama voters in 2008.

I think they are probably VERY representative!
I think they will still remain low info, even after all of this. Their minds are going to blow when they get hit with single payer.
Eff every last one of the morons. We’re all just a bunch of racists for not supporting Obama, right? It couldn’t have been because we knew his policies would lead us right into the sewer.
Eff Obama voters, one and all. They are getting EXACTLY what they deserve, and without lubrication.
Some "lucky" few have gotten quotes. We're hearing their stories.
“I was really shocked,” said Colorado Obamacare supporter Cathy Wagner upon receiving her cancellation notice. “All of my hopes were sort of dashed. Oh my gosh, President Obama, this is not what we hoped for, it’s not what we were told.”
I would venture that all “Karma” is not “good Karma”.
Hopium is a terrible addition. Apparently she still hasn't hit rock bottom yet. Just maybe then she will see that hopium is dangerous.
What they also have NO CLUE about (yet) is that healthcare is also going to be sh!t in this country in no time. The unintended consequences of government intervention will kill the innovative spirit, stifling future medical advancement. Bright young students who may have become good doctors will choose alternate career paths, and many good doctors we have today will retire early or exit the field for other options. Obamacare is a disease in itself.
Guess they are now part of the evil rich who must be punished.
Open weeping.
I love it.
No kidding.
In my opinion, working class democrats (of every color) are the most ignorant people walking the earth today. They continue to vote contrary to their own self-interests.
Is it possible that the Obama experiment will finally wake some of these morons up? No, I didn’t think so. They are incapable of learning.
