Obamacare is now on par with Social Security and Medicare: a 3rd rail to the establishment.

Maybe, but I see this a little differently. It was easy to con people about Social Security and Medicare because their insolvency and personal financial impacts were years/decades in the future.

Obamacare is failing before our very eyes -- and it's very expensive for people RIGHT NOW.

The problem is that politicians like McConnell and Ryan are only thinking about the midterm elections in 2018 (short term), and are scared to death that pulling an entitlement away from people will cost them those elections, and thus power. It’s always about power and what the MSM will write about them.
