Obamacare is a terminal political cancer for incumbent Senate Democrats, including senators Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), Mark Pryor (D-Ark.), Mary Landrieu (D-La.), Kay Hagan (D-N.C.) and Mark Begich (D-Ala.). Senators Mark Udall (D-Colo.) and Mark Warner (D-Va.) are showing early stage symptoms as well. Combine those races with the open seats in West Virginia, South Dakota, Iowa and Michigan and it’s obvious the Democrats are struggling.

Will Hussein punt in his mom jeans? Won't this make the repeal complete? Are all Americans still liars? Stay tuned...

Has no one figured out that the individual mandate has nothing to do with the explosion in the cost of insurance?? It will have no effect on the declining access to health care. It will not stop tens of thousands of doctors leaving the profession. It will not stop millions of Mexican invaders from joining the free health care crowds.

Delaying it will have no effect on those losing non compliant policies, nor will it mitigate 50%-300% premium increases.

It just means that [for a limited time] we won’t be fined by the government for being driven into poverty by ObamaCare.

BFD

Thank you John “the traitor” Roberts.

He cannot unilaterally delay the mandate can he?

That’s what the most recent gov’t shutdown was about - writing legislation to delay the mandate.

Senator Cruz, please preempt this move.

It’s too late anyway. All this would do is postpone the fines.

The whole system has been thrown into upheaval, the Jeannie is out of the bottle.

People have already had their hours cut, been laid off, lost their existing policies and grappled with the exchanges because of this POS.

The only people loving this are the LIVs on Medicaid.

They'll just declare it to be the fault of the GOP.

So “no pre-existing conditions” is still in place, but the individual mandate will be axed. The cost figures were based, erroneously I might add, on the fines driving people to acquire coverage. Without the mandate in place there is no good reason to purchase coverage for those who didn’t want insurance in the first place.

Thus, the insurance companies are left holding the bag. They are forced to offer more expensive plans with fewer people enrolled, but the pool of people covered is effectively expanded.

It was clear from the beginning that the whole ACA was intended to drive the insurance companies out of the health care market and “force” the government to step in with single payer.

The Obama amoeba.
It morphs weekly.
At least now I can see why they needed the 15,000 additional attorneys and accountants to administer the constant revisions.

The only question that maters is, “How many uninsured are there now, versus before ObamaCare?

The 47 million, the 47 million, the 47 million uninsured, the 47 million uninsured ... THAT was the rationale for ObamaCare ... so, how many uninsured do we have now?

Will Speaker Boehner force Obama to obey “THE LAW OF THE LAND?”

Or will Speaker Boehner just continue to be a doormat “yes man” for any changes that Obama makes to Obamacare?

I can’t wait to see how the Stupid Party manages to turn this debacle into obama’s crowning success in time for the fall elections.

GOP mouthpieces will likely be seen daily on the news praising the hero obama for postponing obamacare and helping out the people. (They’ll also put in a plug for amnesty as long as the camera is there and running.)

Jonny McCain will be leading the pack once he takes over for Carney as obama’s spokeswar”hero”person.

If I sound excited, it’s because I am.
