Health care nothing for Loebsack to promote

While watching Dave Loebsack's campaign communications, it is interesting to note that there is little mention of his vote and support for Obamacare, this crown jewel achievement of Congress during the last two years.
Maybe he has come to realize that voters consider it irresponsible to implement another massive federal entitlement program while running up trillion-dollar-plus annual deficits. The cost of this health care legislation is impossible to accurately predict for three years, much less 10 years, and it likely will cost more.
Loebsack and Nancy Pelosi are very comfortable with spending our kids' money.
