First off, Watch this video:
Now, you see that person that Megan is interviewing? That’s Jonathan Turley. Turley is not a Conservative. He’s a liberal. He’s also a Constitutional scholar; and he is basically saying that Obamacare is in deep trouble. Turley saying this, is like God talking to Moses from the mountain. If I were an elected Democrat; I would be either one of two things; very, very afraid or highly pissed off at Obama — or Both.
Now, go look at this posting by “AllahPundit” over at HotAir.com. AP is a basically a lawyer in New York; and basically, the dude knows his stuff, when it comes to law as well. Now there are some people, that are trying to downplay this; I do not buy that at all. I think Turley knows what he is talking about. I also would tend to trust what Turley is saying over some partisan blogger.
Folks, Between now and 2016 is going to be a very interesting time; and I think there’s going to be some very highly pissed off Democrats and Americans in general. You know, like those who gave up some crappy insurance plans and kicked out the money, getting this new insurance and now, they’re going to lose their subsidies and then, their premiums are going to skyrocket and, basically, they are going to end up with no insurance.
Now, if the Republicans are smart, they will play this for all it is worth; hopefully, they do it the right way. Because if this is going to be as bad as Turley thinks it is; you are going to see one of the biggest defections from the Democratic Party in recent American history. It might actually be 1980 all over again; like after the Carter era. Only this time, with social media, and the 24 hour news cycle; the anger is going to be much, much worse.
Now as for the defections; this does not mean that there are going to be a bunch of new Republicans, not at all. What it does mean is that people in deeply blue states will either not vote or will vote third party. Which will take votes away from the Democrats. If you think that the pain will just be felt at the Presidential level; think again. There will be Senators and Reps who are going to be out of a job. As I said, 2016 is going to be a bloody mess; and it is not going to be on the Republican side. The Democrats basically screwed their constituents and I mean hard; all for the goal of getting a nationalized healthcare system — and now, it is imploding.
Hold on to your hats folks; it is going to be a rough ride from here till 2016.
