Actually, Marokai, Medicare was very popular when it was enacted. It did not have to become popular later.
And even a popular health care change like Medicare were not enough to save Democrats from losing 47 House seats in 1966 and the White House in 1968.
Only time will tell whether this has been Obama's Waterloo, but I suspect the Democrats victory will be a Pyhrric one. This bill actually gives them little of what they want and comes with a heavy political price. If we're stting here in 2013 watching Mitt Romney bomb Iran whether Democrats will think it was all worth it.
That won't happen since ObamaCare has killed any chance of Willard being the GOP nominee.
True enough. So Tim Pawlenty bombs Iran, then?
