Stand your ground. When a Tea Partier says Obamacare is a government takeover, say “I wish,” because that would mean Medicare for all. And you know, Medicare is hugely popular in America. So let’s see. Get behind something that’s hugely popular for all. “No, too hard to say.” A year ago Kaiser polled Americans on what they thought of Obamacare’s individual provisions. 80% liked the idea of exchanges. 76% likes kids staying on their parents’ plan. 71% liked Medicaid expansion. Two-thirds liked the ban on pre-existing conditions. Half the people in the survey were like: “Hey, why don’t we get Congress to do these things.” Oh, you mean the things the Democrats have already done but are keeping a big secret? No wonder Republicans have such an easy time selling their argument about Obamacare, which is basically – “Hey we tried it. It was a big failure.” How about volleying that one back with “What? We’re still signing people up for Christ’s sake.How can we even know if it’s a failure?” What we do know is that Sarah Palin and Rick Santorum said it would kill their children. No, you guys are thinking of assault rifles. We also know that in 2010 Republican Senator Tom Colburn said “There will be no insurance industry left in three years.” Always the drama queens. Republicans run ad after ad of Obamacare horror stories. Where are the success stories from the Democrats? You just need someone who has seen a gynecologist, not Bigfoot. Shoot a college kid on your phone. “Hi, I’m Tony I got the clap on Spring Break. Good thing I was on my parents’ plan because now it doesn’t hurt when I pee. Thanks Obamacare.” It’s not like you’re trying to sell a Vince Vaughn movie... it’s a good thing. ^_^
