Obama Campaign Continues

Campaigner-in-Chief Obama just can't let up. He spent the past year trying to sell ObamaCare, and the more he talked, the more people turned against it.

But now that it has passed, and Democrats stand to lose a substantial number of seats in November, Obama is making a concerted effort to increase public perception of the bill. It hasn't worked so far, so I wonder how successful it will be now.

And in reality, doesn't this seem backward. Now that he and Congress have foisted this on us, he is trying to convince us he has done us all a favor. It's not as bad as Nancy Pelosi saying, "We have to pass the bill before we will tell you what's in it," but it is along the same lines.

The funny thing is, he obviously doesn't care about public perception or else he wouldn't have passed it until he had the support of a majority of people. Instead, he only cares about saving control of Congress from what will surely be an albatross around their collective neck.

I doubt it will work - as the taxes and fees start up in the coming months, without the attendant benefits of the plan, the public will just get more and more angry.
