An interesting update on the politics of ObamaCare appears in CongressDailyPM (subscription required):
The marking of six months since the signing of the healthcare law should be a moment of celebration by Democrats, especially as several popular provisions go into effect today. But the political realities of the midterm elections have made trumpeting the law, which remains unpopular with large swaths of the electorate, a delicate balancing act for Democrats…
House leaders tell their members to address the healthcare law in a way that best suits their districts…
some Democratic members in the House and Senate instruct staff not to write talking points on the law’s six-month provisions…
a former administration official questions if Democrats’ efforts to sell the bill are making any significant headway…
It’s little wonder, really.
But still. Wow.
