Republicans Plan to use ACA (Affordable Healthcare Act) like
a chain around the Democrats neck. According to John Boehner (Speaker of the
House), they plan to continue using so called bad stories about ACA (or just
lies) right up to the 2014 elections.
If the Democrats do not develop an
offensive strategy to counter this approach, they will lose control of both
houses in 2014. So I have some suggestions for President Obama and the
Democrats. Firstly, they must do a better job of promoting stories of people
who have gotten affordable insurance for the first time in their life. We are being bombarded with all this negative crap
everyday. Secondly, his administration need to organize an army of people in
the neighborhoods who will go door to door to sign people up in their homes,
offices, college campuses and businesses. Thirdly, President Obama is not running again,
so he should use the "Big Stick Approach". He should be taking names and kicking butts.
Extremist Republicans who are trying to sabotage
ACA should be called out and targeted for 2014. Fourth, The American people are
very short sighted. The President has to do a better job of explaining the financial
connection between people with and without insurance. Around 70% of Americans
have some type of insurance, and they are not willing to risk having their own
personal insurance impacted by ACA. The Obama Administration needs to explain
that the cost of healthcare will continue to rise as long as 40 million people
do not have any insurance. The hospitals have to spread the cost by increasing basic
services. The hospitals spread the cost of care by padding your bill and mine.
