Mitch McConnell Will Keep Government Out Of Kentucky's Exchange When He Repeals Obamacare
Let's just not tell Mitch McConnell where he went wrong here, OK? It would be more fun that way. You see, he's pledging that when he becomes Senate Majority Leader next year, he's going to repeal Obamacare SO HARD. (Hey, let's not remind him that there's no way he could hope to override the inevitable veto, either.) But when he was asked how that would affect the 413,000 people who've gotten insurance through Kynect, the very popular state health exchange, McConnell
told reporters Friday that the fate of the state exchange is unconnected to the federal health care law. Yet the exchange would not exist, if not for the law that created it.
Seriously, NOBODY TELL HIM!
Are you guys as stoked to see a debate between Yertle and Alison Lundergan Grimes as we are?

Follow Doktor Zoom on Twitter. He wishes Blue Cross would quit bugging him to pay for his Obamacare, too.
i keep TELLING myself not to panic, not to get sucked into that crap, not to believe the non stop media coverage.
like in '12.
like in '08.
i remember several of your comments talked me down then too. thanks for the level head and reasoned thinking man.
(this is very hard as i am both excitable and shallow).
Also don't tell him filibusters* work both ways. ___________________________________________ * As satisfying as turnabout-is-fair-play would be, the filibuster is wildly un-democratic. Which the Senate itself amplifies with two votes per state regardless of population.
