Obama meets with Senate Democrats anxious over health care law ... Democrats Open to Compromise?

President Obama on Wednesday sought to assuage anxious Democrats who are worried that ObamaCare’s troubled rollout is going to come back to haunt them during the 2014 midterm elections.

“There’s a lot of pent-up frustration” among Senate Democrats who are facing voters next year, a party source familiar with the meeting told Fox News.

A Democratic source told Fox News’ Ed Henry that some of the senators in the room floated a delay of up to one year in the law’s implementation – an idea the president rejected. The source said, however, that senators left the White House feeling that it was a “constructive meeting.”

The meeting could suggest that momentum is building for Democrats to force changes to the law. A letter circulated in late October among Democratic senators urged the Obama administration to delay enforcement of the health care law’s individual mandate

If there is going to be any changes in the ACA, the next few months is when the Democratic Senators would be looking to compromise.
 
There aren't enough senators or representatives to override a Presidential veto.
 
Yeah. They don't give a shit about the millions of people negatively affected by this POS law.

They just want to get re-elected after forcing said POS law on us.

"Oh, please don't make us face the consequences for what we did! It's not FAAAAAAAAIR!!"
 
I could see them overriding a veto. They are scared. If the majority of the people are against ACA now, what will it be in January?...and then in November? This could be the breakdown of support for Obama. Remember what happened in 2010. Obama turned his back on his own.
 
Didnt the Senate and President shut down the government when Republicans wanted this very thing?
Oh the irony.

Republicans performing an action: Bad and awful and evil.

Democrats performing the same action: Good and righteous and holy.

If it weren't for double standards, liberals would have no standards at all.

It's incredible, isn't it? What, 4 weeks ago we were told "Obamacare is the law of the land. Deal with it." Today the Democrats are pushing to delay it because it is such a disaster. Cuccinelli wasnt a particularly good candidate but he nearly beat McAuliffe on that one issue alone. Dems are running scared, just weeks after they were congratualing themselves for destroying the GOP.

That's what happens when your entire belief system is based on emotion instead of facts, logic, and reason.

I doubt the ACA is going to be a feather in any Dems cap when elections roll around.

In fact I'd be willing to bet anyone who voted for that POS law won't get re-elected. Oh and BTW, that was all Dems.
 
Nothing will happen.

The GOP only except a delay and removing the taxes on medical devices, both of which they will use to batter the Dems.

BHO will veto either of those.

The 16 Senators are all worried now. What do they tell their constituents. Obama just said he was sorry. How far will that go for the Senators who are up for election?
