And I have to think, EVEN IF, by next March the obama Administration has met its targeted sign up goals with the AFCA the President will be faced with continuing political problems due to the following: 1. The perception of competency is gone: After all if you can't manage the implementation of your signature stake your political life on it legislation what can you manage? Do we trust you to make accord with Iran over nuclear weapons? Appoint competent advisors? Etc., etc. 2. Your credibility is shot: Your staff for sure knew when you promised those who liked their present health plan could keep it was not doable, so if they knew they either didn't tell you (what a staff that is), or you knew too and deceived us. So why do we believe you on anything else going forward? It pains me to see this happen as Obama who is person, I believe, who means well for the country, but you can't. as President overcome (without a significant change in the events column that accrues favorably to you) the above two perceptions very easily.
