Karl Rove: Obamacare in Trouble:
The Democratic National Committee is now running ads pressuring Democrats to vote for the president’s health-care plans…It is hard to think of a more obvious sign of weakness than attacking members of your own party.
Plus this:
Team Obama was rushing to pass health care before the August recess out of fear that allowing members to go home for an extended spell before voting on the bill would give them an opportunity to hear from their constituents. They fear that the 300 protestors who showed up at a town hall meeting in Panama City, Fla. held June 30 by Democrat Rep. Allen Boyd shortly after he voted for the cap and trade energy tax are only the start of a larger backlash.
The keywords here are “They fear”. The Sorosphere was not afraid of Tea Parties, if you recall. But why would they? They don’t have to run for re-election in 2010 or 2012. So just keep pushing back, no matter what the opposition says!

I don’t think so. We don’t have Obamacare’s government-mandated deathbed measures right now.

No wonder the whole plan is in trouble.
ANOTHER UPDATE: CNN: Will Obama’s health care plan mirror the 1994 Clinton failure? “15 years later, Obama potentially faces a similar fate.”
We can only hope…
