Dem Congressman on Obamacare: The Worst Is Yet to Come, It’s ‘Going to Hit the Fan’
By Andrew Johnson
April 21, 2014 2:45 PM
Massachusetts representative Stephen Lynch isn’t just worried about the negative impact Obamacare will have on his party’s performance this fall — he also thinks its worst effects on our health-care system are still to come. Lynch, who voted against the Affordable Care Act in 2010, warned that the situation is “going to hit the fan” when the law’s delayed provisions go into effect down the road.
“There are parts of Obamacare, or the Affordable Care Act, that were postponed because they are unpalatable,” he told the Boston Herald. The “Cadillac tax” that goes into effect in a few years and taxes employer health plans over a certain value, he said, will be “the first time in this country’s history that we have actually taxed health care.”
Repeal is now impossible, he says, because of the number of Americans who’ve signed up for the law’s exchanges. Democrats will take big political hits on the law this fall anyway, Lynch said.
“We will lose seats in the House,” he said. “I am fairly certain of that based on the poll numbers that are coming out from the more experienced pollsters down there, and I think we may lose the Senate.”

That's good for Republicans, you fuckwit. Obamacare is going to be an albatross around the neck of Democrats for the next 10 years, like it has been the last 5. Come talk to me in Novem, dipshit.

I love your relentless enthusiasm. It's so easy to get you excited. You don't have any polling. Your minority leader is polling behind in Kentucky right now for the love of God.
