The Obama administration insists that Obamacare is working as designed. With that in mind, Brit Hume has trouble reconciling that claim with the law’s approval:
Obamacare is really working well now. That's why its approval has hit an all-time low. http://t.co/OnatZBRJz8

Either the American people are in the throes of “stupidity,” as Jonathan Gruber has said, or those bragging about how awesome the law is are lying:
Support for Obamacare continues to decline, with the law hitting a new low in approval, and a new high in disapproval, as the second enrollment period has opened for Americans, according to Gallup.
Just 37 percent approve of the Affordable Care Act, 1 percentage point less than the previous low recorded in January, Gallup found in a new survey released Monday.
The White House might spin those numbers as the American public failing to appreciate the wonderful gift Democrats gave to the country in 2009:

@brithume the "ACA" makes it impossible for me to accept "deductible risk." Forces us into high premium plan, DISCOURAGING price clarity.
