“Don’t know if it is still wise to keep the heat on defunding”
You may be correct. Defunding Obamacare would let Obama off the hook for the mess that’s barely begun brewing. You can hear him now ... “It was going beautifully until those bad guys defunded it”.
That’s a cute argument...but this is a systemic change. The more gets implemented, the more of the existing infrastructure is permanently destroyed. There’s no simple “undo” function to restore to what it was just last year.
