TV's Andy Levy fills in for Greg as host and welcomes guests Sherrod Small, Diane Macedo and Charles Payne. Michael Moynihan takes over as the ombudsman. (I decided to post this rather than last Saturday night's episode because the sound quality for that one sucked.)
Politico: Latest ObamaCare Delay Crushes Relaunch "Victory"
Politico writer David Nather says the Obama Administration's announcement that the small business Obamacare system will not be ready for the website's Saturday relaunch dashes all Democratic hopes for declaring the relaunch a victory.
"There's no way the administration could declare victory anyway, since it just suffered the embarrassment of another 'what now?' announcement the day before Thanksgiving - the one-year delay of online enrollment for small businesses in federally run health insurance exchanges," writes Nather. "So there will be no victory celebration, no announcement that could even sound like it."
News that Obamacare's small business enrollment system, known as the SHOP program, will be delayed until after the 2014 midterm elections creates a "victory void" for Democrats scrambling to find political cover for the highly unpopular Obamacare program.
"Democrats on Capitol Hill have their own nightmare scenario, too: The White House gives them nothing to brag about, no evidence that the site is actually better," reports Nather.
