Now, these same demoscats are running for the hills and trying to distance themselves for the O'BomberCare disaster.

And they were all told their votes would result in millions of cancelled insurance policies.

Good luck trying to duck, bob, weave and evade responsibility for leaving millions of Americans uninsured on January 1, 2014.

Senate Dems Supported Obamacare Rule Leading to Cancelled Insurance
10:02 AM, Nov 1, 2013
By MICHAEL WARREN

Senate Democrats, including those up for reelection in 2014, voted three years ago against removing a grandfather rule from Obamacare. Because that rule remains in the law, insurance companies are being forced to cancel policies that don't comply with the Obamacare regulations. CNN's Chris Frates reports:


Senate Democrats voted unanimously three years ago to support the Obamacare rule that is largely responsible for some of the health insurance cancellation letters that are going out.

In September 2010, Senate Republicans brought a resolution to the floor to block implementation of the grandfather rule, warning that it would result in canceled policies and violate President Barack Obama’s promise that people could keep their insurance if they liked it....

On a party line vote, Democrats killed the resolution, which could come back to haunt vulnerable Democrats up for re-election this year.

Senate Democrats like Mary Landrieu, Jeanne Shaheen, Mark Pryor, Kay Hagan and Mark Begich – all of whom voted against stopping the rule from going into effect and have since supported delaying parts of Obamacare.

The rule set up the criteria for what insurance plans would be grandfathered, or exempted, from the new Obamacare requirements. Democrats argued then that the rule was necessary to insure that insurance companies weren’t able to drastically change their plans and still remain exempt from Obamacare.

Senator Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, one of the Democrats who voted against stripping the grandfather rule, is now saying she will introduce legislation to allow Americans who like their health care plan to keep it.

16 million individual policy holders losing their health insurance is no small number.

Further Node, next year when the employer mandates kick in there's another 93 million policies which will be effected by O'BomberCare.

You need to keep up better. Perhaps if you got out more.....

Jwhop, employer-sponsored plans have already been affected over the last few years. I'm guessing you don't have one, or else you'd already know this.
