I think most of the delays are meant to postpone the biggest impact of ObamaCare, the new rate increases.

For now, the problems with the law are rather isolated, and have been marginalized as anecdotal. But once the actuaries take into account all the new unhealthy additions, and the inability to properly rate the higher risk customers, the rate increases will affect everyone. But it takes a lot of time to work through the system, as rates are figured annually, and are implemented throughout the year.

I'm not sure when the increases will start to appear, but when it does, that's when the real S%&t will the fan.

The Democrats thought it would be a success, and they hoped they could run in it for 2014, now they're doing all they can to eke past the mid-terms. And you can be sure as soon as that election is over, they'll start worrying about 2016.

ObamaCare is an albatross around their neck, and it always will be.

It’s only an albaross as long as there is employer provided health care. Once most every is dumped on the exchanges the albatross will be on the GOPe to accept socialized medicine. Which they will happily do. There is no evidence the GOPe will vigorously work to repeal obamacare “root and branch”.
