Dem Chief of Staff: Democrats Are “Seething With Anger” Over Botched Obamacare Rollout, Fear It “Could Be The Demise of The Democratic Party”

President Obama’s relationship with congressional Democrats has worsened to an unprecedented low, Democratic aides say.

They are letting it be known that House and Senate Democrats are increasingly frustrated, bitter and angry with the White House over ObamaCare’s botched rollout, and that the president’s mea culpa in a news conference last week failed to soothe any ill will.

Sources who attended a meeting of House chiefs of staff on Monday say the room was seething with anger over the immense damage being done to the Democratic Party and talk was of scrapping rollout events for the Affordable Care Act.
“Here we are, we’re supposed to be selling this to people, and it’s all screwed up,” one chief of staff ranted. “This either gets fixed or this could be the demise of the Democratic Party.

“It’s probably the worst I’ve ever seen it,” the aide said of the recent mood on Capitol Hill. “It’s bad. It’s really bad.”

Meanwhile, at a recent caucus meeting with Senate Democrats and White House chief of staff Denis McDonough, one senator stood up and asked for a political point of contact at the White House.

They can't fix it. It's not designed to work. It will end up setting liberalism back generations.

Big government liberalism sounds good until it is tried... then it is set back for 30 years until there are 2 generations that haven't seen it fail so it is tried again. Seems to be a regular cycle.

yeah, its a good thing that the tea party is equally as bad.......

had you not shut down the govt you guys would of been soaring into 2014 w/ a republican as gov. of virginia

Still do not think they expected Obamacare to work.
No sensible person would have thought it would.
Just a way to get us to socialized medicine.

It really doesn't matter that much... and I am in Virginia. Democrat governors of Virginia get nothing done. As a small government guy, that is almost preferable.

Could care less if someone is a Dem or Repub or Lib if they are a good person and conservative.

The shut down has come and gone but Obamacare is like herpes, it's here for life. Own it, bro.

Yep. that's what I am counting on anyway.

Little disheartening to read Watkins propose an exchange be set up here, but he's done it before and it got no where. So hopefully that remains the case.

And next November the shutdown will be a distant memory and Obamacare will be same cluster****.

And congressional Democrats know this, which is why they're pissed.

Ah, the irony. obama strongly supports those who don't work, then puts out a healthcare plan that strongly supports those that don't work, and the healthcare plan doesn't work, and loses all support.

Hope we stay as focused when people of our own parties
spend like drunken sailors and we can stop them.
