Washington Examiner columnist Byron York doesn’t see how the Democrats can avoid some heavy negative effects from Obamacare heading into next year’s election:
Dems put off Ocare until after Obama faced re-election. Adm delayed key Ocare rules until after voting. But can't avoid it any longer…

Millions will now begin to understand who actually pays for Obamacare. Middle-income thought it was safe from higher taxes, as Dems promised

Democrats are sure to ratchet up the blame on insurance companies, congressional Republicans and maybe even George W. Bush, but will their spin be enough? Not according to York, who says Dems will pay a political price for Obamacare next year as people realize health care costs more when it’s “affordable” than it did when it was too expensive (to paraphrase P.J. O’Rourke).
Didn't get that they would pay for others' care in form of higher rates. http://t.co/qUIhLrg0Of

Let the spin get even more desperate as the 2014 election draws closer.
