Those of us on the left cannot separate ourselves from the Affordable Care Act at this point. We must work to support and implement this law.
"The only way out is THROUGH."
Support the ACA. And above all, GET OUT AND VOTE IN 2014!!

(21,115 posts)there is only one path to Single Payer....and that is through ACA!
If this breaks...it breaks US...the Democrats...and then we will be considered as useless as the Teabaggers. Not that we are.....but that will be the perception....HOWEVER, if we pull this off....WE will be seen as the ADULTS who really are working in their behalf. It will be an uphill battle under the stress the Republicans are under infighting themselves and HOW the ACA working will make them look comparatively and in conjunction with the schemes and escapades that they have been pulling of late. Those stunts will look pretty damn childish in comparison! The Republicans will be out for years to come...that's the gamble. This bet is going all in...the pay off is huge...but you have to have the poker face and spine to pull it off.
This is why they are soooooo desperate. Remember that....the more desperate they become....the more the win must mean... That should tell you all you need to know about how important this win would be...
