Obamacare Signups Hit 6 Million; 1 Million In 10 Days! 7 Million In Reach

Cue the "but, but how many have paid, how many have cancelled" fools......

It’s official: the government met its goal of 6 million Obamacare signups on Thursday, though it was a reduced goal.

Now, does it have a chance of reaching the Congressional Budget Office’s original projection of 7 million — made before the October debacle over the main HealthCare.gov enrollment site — with four days (and an undetermined grace period) of signups left?

GOP basing their whole campaign in 2014 on taking it away from them.....there is the whole reason they are so afraid of the success of the ACA, tens of millions of newly angry voters.

The silence of Fox News on these awesome numbers is deafening.

and in this case Obama helped me personally. I am going to town using my ACA and getting great care without the monster deductible of years past. I heart Obamacare!

seems unable to grasp, declining insurance rates for most, increased coverage to minimum standards, no more medical bankruptcies, reduced pressure on ER's, Medicaid expansion, reduced uninsured numbers, children on parents plans, preventive care, expanded community clinics, the list goes on and on.....simply too complex to ponder it seems.
