"beside the point" rather overstates the level of concern.

Teabaggers think they're fighting against adding that $1M to the "rising cost of health care" and "imposing the cost on taxpayers."

If you're saddled with any 'bagger friends, you should ask how they imagine the hospital covered that $1M. These idiots seem to think that if they refuse to spend tax money on something, magic will take care of it.

All of Mitt's friends can afford a million-dollar hospital bill . . . in fact, they'd probably get world-class treatement at some high-end clinic, and spend two mil on it.

Once the thing is up and running in another couple weeks, perhaps it will be easier to get him to consider a very minimal plan. Some states are doing quite a lot of outreach and my guess is that many people even without a paranoia diagnosis may be nervous and suspicious, given all the scare tactics. Good luck, keep trying.

Not a chance. (1) There's no way he could get the Repo nom again; (2) He knows he'll get thrashed in the general. The American electorate may be fairly stupid, but it still requires Presidential candidates to at least successfully fake sincerity.

Cruz is shooting his wad way too early. By late 2015, he's going to be that doofus that tried to fuck up the economy back in 2013. He's in the lead now among alleged Repo primary voters because who the fuck else do they have?
