Something tells me no one really thought about headline placement here…or maybe they did…
Psst, Slate, don’t suggest too much, lest you incur a visit from the FBI.
Here’s Slate’s story on how Democrats are preparing for more bad news on Obamacare, and Democrats are behind in polls:
On Saturday, President Obama’s new Web startup—healthcare.gov—is supposed to work better. How much better is a little hard to pin down. Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius says, “We are definitely on track to have a significantly different user experience by the end of this month.” Considering the initial experience was a near total collapse, Sebelius is doing an excellent job at keeping expectations in the bargain basement. It is practically impossible for the site to fail at offering a “different user experience,” so her guarantee is perhaps the weakest promise one could make. The official promise is much more brave. According to a spokeswoman for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the entire federal health care system, from beginning to end, will work as originally intended for the vast majority of users.
