I have one worry about this.
Every now and then, you see political issues that could easily be solved with one or two laws passed. And given the hyperbole politicians use when talking about those issues, you'd think they'd do it in a heartbeat. Instead, they seem to be happy letting the issue sit there, festering, so they can have something to harp on in political campaigns. After all, an adamantly pro-life candidate loses a lot of their oomph if abortion is outlawed nationwide.
And that's kinda what I worry Obamacare is going to be: an issue Republicans are going to constantly bitch and moan about, but they're never going to actually try to repeal it. Because bitching about it gets them more votes than repealing it.
