A crack in the Democrat defense of Obamacare

...
Ever the politico, Mr. Schumer put the problem to Democrats in terms crass enough for them to understand—“only a third of the uninsured are even registered to vote,” he said, and only “about 5% of the electorate” benefits from the entitlement. “To aim a huge change in mandate at such a small percentage of the electorate made no political sense.”

Mr. Schumer is still missing the crucial point. ObamaCare is not merely a disaster for big government but a disaster of big government. The law is unpopular because its mandates, taxes and central planning are harming the economy and the insurance and medical care of average Americans.
...
He now sees the damage it has done to the Democrats to push this control freak program that a majority of people see no benefit from.   Will he and the 31 remaining Democrats in teh Senate who voted for the mess finally turn on Obama's defense of this bad law?  Probably not until they lose another election.
