Where the websites work, ObamaCare is doing just fine, which should tell you everything you need to know. It’s tiresome to read all these stories about what a problem ObamaCare is, but this is a transient issue that will do no good to the Republicans going forward. They oppose the law so vociferously, precisely because they know that it will be politically impossible to gain any benefit from opposing subsidies that make health insurance affordable for millions of Americans. They are throwing everything they have at the law now in a desperate attempt to stop it, and it is working politically for them. Unfortunately for them, the elections are almost a year in the future. And they are hopelessly divided on every other political issue that is current in the country.
For all the sound and fury, we are still in “please proceed” mode.
