They are cowards, brought to this weakly-conceived idea, not by principle, but by the thought that their constituents continue to oppose Obamacare and will remove them from office in 2014 if they continue defending that which is indefensible!

They knew when they voted for it in the first place that it was a bad idea, they knew their constituents would not be in favor of it. They still chose to cram it down their throats.
That is not cowardice, that is subversion. the cowardice is not being able to stand behind their original vote when facing the voters.

Agree. They should be asked how they researched this bill to see if anyone would lose their coverage, and what the rates would be for those not going onto medicaid or receiving subsidies.

They can all crow now about delay, but they held that opportunity in their hands on the final vote, and surely now during the last budget process.

They all owe Ted Cruz et al an apology.
