Obamacare and the 2014 Election

Health insurance enrollment every year is October-December. They do this so that people won't buy insurance once they get sick. As with any new program, there'll be glitches with Obamacare. That's the best case scenario. The worst case is that it's a disaster. Democrats can't delay Obamacare for a year. They want these problems to happen in 2013, and to work out all the kinks this year. The one thing they don't want is people going into the market for the first time in October 2014, right before the election. If they do, they'll get slaughtered at the polls. Even if it works.

Democrats are scared of what's going to happen with implementing the law. People aren't going to vote based on the positive things they're told other people will have. They'll vote on whether it works for them. If it works, the Democrats could win votes. If it doesn't, the GOP will get the votes. It doesn't sound like it's going to work for people this year. I'm skeptical they'll solve the problems by next year.
