16. If you are talking to a potential Dem voter ... what will you say about the ACA?

Mar 2014

Will you promote it as a good starting point that we should work to build on, adding public options at the state level, and single payer at the state level, and using those to push a federal PO into the federal exchanges? That this is why every Dem should get up and go vote on election day?

Or ...

Will you claim the ACA sucks, Dems suck, and that we're going to lose in 2014 so there's really no reason to get up on election day?

Well?
