Was this already posted? Mika B. got through to the ACA toll free # live at Morning Joe a couple [View all]

of days ago. Joe was huffing and puffing about how AWFUL the ACA rollout was. In the middle of his rant, Mika pulled out her phone, dialed the number and within 75 seconds got an agent. "They referred you to the website, right?" guest Ronan Farrow asked. She said no, she got an agent. "They were ready to sign me up."

Nicolle Wallace got a sick smile on her face and you know she was dying inside.
