Spent 10 minutes test-driving MD health exchange signup. 1 hr 40 mins in, it can't be done. http://t.co/rhYt1JaWhK

@HealthCareGov FYI, the exchange site is not working for setting up an account, nor is the chat feature for help. Any advice?

Who will be blamed for this mess?
It appears the anarchists have shut down the Obamacare exchange website.

Recommend waiting on @healthcaregov website-all kinds of access issues & error messages-took me almost an hour just to get an account

The http://t.co/EwQCTg4vH3 website is down now. Apparently, I'm not the only American actually willing to use the ACA marketplace.

Trying to browse the @HealthCareGov website. When creating account, security question options won't show up. Can't move forward.

Not impressed with http://t.co/NO4S79qsDL. Could the govt not afford decent programmers & servers? 2 hours & can't even get acct set up
