I am concerned about causing a government shutdown.  It will put Republicans in a very bad light.  Not because Republicans would be wrong, but because the mainline press will do their Democrat favorites a favor and make all difficulties the fault of Republicans. Delaying implementation for one year makes it about reelection questions. Democrats can join in on this vote to delay and twist it all to get themselves reelected.   I think that Obama has a win/win and Republicans have a loose/lose situation.  SO what is the best interest of the American people.  The best answer is to defund Obama care and pass a continuing resolution. How this is to be accomplished is the huge question.
