DWS: Delaying ObamaCare Means ObamaCare is Here For the Long Haul or Something

Yesterday the Obama administration announced through the Treasury Department that the employer mandate in the law requiring businesses with 50 or more employees to provide health insurance is being delayed until 2015 (after the 2014 midterm elections). The employer mandate was originally set to start in 2014 but it seems Democrats are extremely worried about another 2010 slaughter as a result of the legislation.

But yesterday in response to Speaker John Boehner calling ObamaCare a train wreck, DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz argued that the delay of the mandate means the law is here to stay "for the long haul."

.@TheFix No, @SpeakerBoehner what announcement means is @BarackObama is in it for long haul to fully implement #Obamacare. #youcantstopit

DWS is right about one thing, we're in this for the long haul thanks to the Obama administration continually delaying the implementation of the law. Why not just repeal the thing?
