Today’s the day, America!
You have to go to healthcaregov to see the number. Sorry!

Is the number of http://t.co/LTYnoFeCsu enrollees bigger than a breadbox? #SteveAllen

HHS has released its official Obamacare “enrollment” numbers.
So they're really using this definition that people who merely have "selected" a plan, not 100% enrolled, count in enrollment numbers?

Let’s see what we’ve got:
Number of people signed up for Obamacare since Oct. 1 —> 106,185
— Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) November 13, 2013
Wait … seriously?
106,185 select health insurance plan through ACA exhanges in first month; just under 27,000 enroll through federally-administered exchange.

BREAKING: 106,185 Americans enrolled in state and federal exchanges through Nov. 2 per HHS

HHS: 106,185 AMERICANS SELECTED HEALTH PLANS
— Philip Klein (@philipaklein) November 13, 2013
“Selected plans.” Which, we have to remember, is not the same as “enrolled.”
By "enroll" admin means a health insurance plan was at least put into the shopping cart. Amazon Wish List Accounting. http://t.co/xeDLC6wVfP

Let’s see how Healthcare.gov stacked up:
HHS: 26,794 people enrolled through http://t.co/42WSNzdKsg

Abysmal. But all is not lost. There are still some enrollment numbers that are high:
What's the Medicaid number?
— Jimmy (@JimmyPrinceton) November 13, 2013
So glad you asked!
HHS: 396,261 Americans have been determined or assessed eligible for Medicaid or CHIP
— Philip Klein (@philipaklein) November 13, 2013
Sebelius says "396,261 have been determined or assessed eligible for Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)."

Working as planned.
The Obamacare enrollment figures are (Uecker voice) JUST a bit outside of the projections.
— jimgeraghty (@jimgeraghty) November 13, 2013
Yeah, just a bit.
More than 100,00 have "selected" a health plan. Not to spoil the party, but how many actually GOT a health plan? 1/3
— Stephen Green (@VodkaPundit) November 13, 2013
And of the fraction of 100,000 who are actually covered, how many are paying more for less coverage? 2/3
— Stephen Green (@VodkaPundit) November 13, 2013
And of the fraction of the second fraction, how many got to keep their doctor? 3/3
— Stephen Green (@VodkaPundit) November 13, 2013
Don’t ask questions. Just drink it all in.
Missed it by that much MT RT @ezraklein: ~106,000 people enrolled in Obamacare That's 394,000 fewer than expected http://t.co/g6rHpphe10

106K = size of my hometown. Home run, guys.
— Brittany (@bccover) November 13, 2013
I stand corrected, the total number of ACA signups is less than half the size of my hometown.
— Brittany (@bccover) November 13, 2013
I selected a brand new BMW yesterday.
— Jay Caruso (@JayCaruso) November 13, 2013
I think 26,000 Obamacare enrollees is a perfectly cromulent number.
— Michael Deppisch (@deppisch) November 13, 2013
106,185. Pretty sure I've fapped more times.
— Dr Hugo Hackenbush (@MangyLover) November 13, 2013
Gullibleville, population 106,185.

Current spin: "We knew it would be a bad first month." Coming spin: "We knew it would be a bad first two months."
— jimgeraghty (@jimgeraghty) November 13, 2013
So, 7 million people have lost their insurance thanks to Obamacare and only 106,185 have signed up. Terrific.
— Katie Pavlich (@KatiePavlich) November 13, 2013
Obamacare “enrollments” are this year’s jobs “saved or created”
— Bill Murphy (@billmurphy) November 13, 2013
Bingo. Heckuva job, Team Obama!
If you like your FAIL, you can keep your FAIL.
— The H2 (@TheH2) November 13, 2013
How much more fail is it gonna take to get Obama to kick this monstrosity to the curb once and for all?
106,185 Americans (optimistically!) enrolled versus 3.5 million who have lost plans. Worth it, Dems? REPEAL.
