Don’t give them any time. The Rats will use time to prop it up with a hodgepodge of fixes.

Bring it to a head now. Overwhelm the Rats. No delays. No delays. No delays.

AT 2800 pages of legislation, I don’t think the Democrats can do a fix to this. This bill has to be so complicated that any change would affect 100’s of other provisions. But I do agree the Democrats could turn the tide on the wait-and-see Republicans if they can make it look like they are trying to improve the unpopular aspects of the law. The result would be the Democrats are able to weather the storm, and we get stuck with this mess.

No, not now, no delays now: they had their chance. The second budget the House passed included a one year delay, but the ‘Rats shut down the government rather than pass it.

Now the “let it burn” strategy is optimal — it would have been good without the two House-passed budgets that Harry Reid wouldn’t let come to the Senate floor (the defund-budget and the delay-budget) — but now it’s just perfect because it makes the House GOP and Ted Cruz look prophetic (not that it takes any prophetic gift, just a passable understanding of economics, to know that Obamacare was going to be a disaster).
