CHAIT: Obamacare will go from 'doomed' to 'scandal.'"Obamacare -- actual, real, Obamacare, with doctors and cards and everything -- has been operational for nearly a week now. It has been ... extremely boring. It does not look like Stalinist collectivization. There aren't even any beheadings. It looks like regular medical insurance, except several million more people now have it than before...Obamacare will neither collapse, nor will Republicans accept its legitimacy, but the nature of their opposition will instead slowly morph. Gleeful predictions of imminent collapse will give way to bitter recriminations at the nefarious tactics used to make the law work. Obamacare will cease to be the something certain to destroy Obama and become something Obama has gotten away with." Jonathan Chait in New York Magazine.

As a poster pointed out on another thread, W "got away" with lying us into an illegitimate, unnecessary invasion of Iraq that cost us a trillion and still counting, hundreds of thousands of Iraqi and American lives, and won us absolutely NOTHING.

Obama "got away" with Obamacare, which gave millions of Americans access to health care that they had lacked before.

That's why people VOTE, (D), Dave.
