The Fight’s Not About Health Care
So what are we fighting about? How smoothly the law operates, and how many customers it manages to enroll by the end of Obama’s term, are open questions. Likewise up for debate is whether Obama’s approval ratings will recover. But these are not fundamentally questions about the life or death of Obamacare. They’re about how much political pain Democrats in Congress must endure. We’re not fighting over health care policy. We’re fighting about the midterm elections.

Now don’t you find that passing strange?
Who Da Man?
As the Republicans get ready to whup up
On Dems who act like a ready-whipped pup.
As the midterms descend
Is this really the end?
Or will the Dems finally “Man up?”
