Respond to Fear: Blue State Dem Senator Won't Say If She'd Vote for Obamacare Again Townhall.com ^ | February 4, 2014 | Guy BensonThese ads and this poll must really be eating away at Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH). In a recent appearance on WKXL radio, Shaheen parroted the problematic Zeke Emanuel line in response to questions about the president's bogus "keep your doctor" pledge, and ducked giving a direct answer on whether she'd vote for Obamacare all over again ( click through for audio): Americans who have lost access to their health care providers due to ObamaCare may be able to get their old doctors back but only if they are “willing to pay more.” That’s Sen.

Also, does she think she's fooling anyone with this demurral? She's as loyal as they come:
