Repealing Obamacare
C.K. MacLeod writes at Hot Air: ...
(Another way to put it: Passing a multi-trillion dollar government
takeover of health care supported by only 35 percent of the public
takes 60 Democratic senators; repealing such a monstrosity does not.
Though it will take many many more Republicans in the House and Senate
than there are now.)
On the One-Yard Line?
Senior White House Advisor David Axelrod said today that supporters of Obamacare are "right on the one-yard line."
It would be more accurate to say that the Democrats are on the 1-yard
line -- with the clock running down -- but they trail by 8 points and
it's 4th down. They have almost no margin for error. They need to sneak
the ball across the goal line for a touchdown (at 1:00 AM, in the
Senate), followed by a 2-point conversion (in the House). Then they
need yet another score in overtime (back in the Senate) to win. All the
while, they'll have to overcome the roar of the crowd, which is audibly
and increasingly against them.
