Highlighting defects with the law, such as the troubled website, may discourage young, healthy, web-savvy consumers whose participation is critical to offset the risk of insuring older, sticker people. The website’s flaws made it harder for people to enroll in health plans, marring its Oct. 1 debut and giving critics ammunition to undercut the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Obama’s signature domestic achievement.
“The economics of it are the challenge,” said Matt McDonald, an adviser to Mitt Romney’s 2012 Republican presidential campaign and a partner at Hamilton Place Strategies, a Washington-based consulting group. “The longer the site is broken, the worse the risk pool gets. If that happens, then you can get a vicious cycle where it collapses.”

The Republicans will be along any minute now to save the Boy King's butt. Some things are just sooo predictable.
Any minute now...
Not true. It will probably take longer than that for the checks to clear or the couriers to get back with to the country with the deposit slips.

BTW,why make this any harder than it has to be? If the alleged Republicans were serious about stopping this monstrosity,ALL they have to do is get Obummer and the Dim leadership on national tv and ask them:
"If this program is so good,are you ready right now to declare in public that from this instant forward you,your wife,and your children will ONLY receive their medical care under Obama Care at your local hospitals using the doctors available,and NOT at government hospitals like Bethesda Naval Hospital ,where you are treated like royalty with the best medical care in the world and never get charged a penny?
If not,WHY IS IT SO WONDERFUL FOR THE REST OF US"?
