We’ll Check Back On Her Next Year
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) took to the airwaves to argue that she believes that Democrats will be able to run on Obamacare as an advantage in 2014.
Schultz: “I think Obamacare, because Americans have been feeling the benefits since 2010, where young adults can stay on their parents’ insurance until they’re 26, where on January 1 if you have a preexisting condition, like I do, as you know, as a breast cancer survivor, the peace of mind … that those Americans are going to have knowing that they can never be dropped or denied coverage for that preexisting condition, the preventative care that’s available without a co-pay or a deductible, those are benefits that Americans have already been feeling and will increasingly feel as Obamacare is fully implemented.”
Schultz believes the country is against tea party extremism and is fully confident that the president’s signature legislation will be a positive next year.
Meanwhile President Barack Obama‘s poll numbers have taken a nosedive due to the botched rollout of Healthcare.gov. The state of Oregon has reportedly tracked zero sign ups for the plan and Democrats up for reelection next year are reportedly scrambling for cover. Senator Jeff Merkley (D-OR) when asked if Democrats were losing credibility stated, “You got to have it, to lose it.”
Fifteen Senate Democrats sat down with the White House and reportedly gave the president a piece of their mind over the disaster. Senator Mark Begich (D-AK) issued a statement that declared it was,”absolutely unacceptable” mismanagement and “an understandable crisis in confidence.”
The administration wants at least 7 million Americans enrolled in Obamacare in 2014 and another 9 million to enroll in Medicare by March 31st.

Something tells me she’s really worried about 2014 actually. Ken Cuccinelli only lost by a couple of points and VA Republicans still hold solid control of the HoD which will if nothing else will act as a check on Terry McAuliffe. Already elements of his campaign like gun control are DOA automatically.
The only reason Cuccinelli lost was because of a “libertarian” candidate…. who was not actually libertarian. He was a liberal… so much that big liberal PACs funded his campaign. No one seems to be talking about this deception.
Yeah I forgot to mention that, though it’s revealed that he actually took near equal number of votes both from the Cuccinelli and McAuliffe camps. Still he had an influence in his defeat.
and that Cuccinelli was also a nut job trying to ban oral sex among other things.
And this is why I’m sometimes embarrassed to be associated with libertarians like you. He never wanted to ban oral sex, he only wants to protect children from sex offenders and pedophiles. He doesn’t however want to ban sex between adults. Though maybe things like this did have some affect on people.
This was not only for minors…

True libertarians don’t want the government telling us how large or small our toilets can be and we sure don’t want them telling us what fun we can have either. Everything he was trying to cover it with “for the children” is already against the law.
I will say prayer and hope they loose those 15 seats. Then we can start fixing things they fixed
It worries me when they say they “want another 9 million in Medicare.” The hell is that supposed to mean? You aren’t supposed to be in medicare.
