yeah, what a surprise. i mean, 2014 is going to be a real referendum. you already see a tell-tale sign. cay hagan is looking in grave danger. terry mcconnell went from a 12-point lead to a 2-point lead in the virginia s governor race in the last two weeks. democrats are looking for cover and they are not going to find it because the administration just keeps stepping in it. well, back to that point, i m wondering how much that delay will have everybody knows if they delay the next part of the rollout until a week or two after the next election, people still know what s going to happen. people still will remember what has been happening, right? the approval ratings are i like that line of beerends, congress will be neck and neck in the mud stuck. this is what happens when you whip through a bill nobody reads and it s really difficult to read. and it is causing insurance premiums to spike across the board. and people are losing their
