Coburn Concedes Exchanges Will 'Work Well'
Sen. Tom Coburn (R-OK), one of the most ardent opponents of Obamacare, admitted that the law's health insurance exchanges "will work and work well," Huffington Post reports.
Said Coburn: "I'm not worried about the exchanges. They'll get that fixed."
He said the early failures of HealthCare.gov were due to an "incompetency of management" but "will eventually work and work well."

I know many people who will probably die waiting for Oklahoma to get on board with this. Not that anyone in the controlling party in this state gives a rat's patoot.

She doesn't care about us one wit. All she cares about is mary fallin and mary fallin alone.
She's not one of the 1%'rs but she thinks like she is. Those kind can't be reasoned with
I shutter to think we've got 4 more years of her ugly ass to put up with. You've always heard that beauty sometimes can be only skin deep, well her kind of ugly is bone deep

That the site is largely fixed within a couple months of rollout speaks to normal glitches in large SI projects.
And the rough rollout will be long forgotten by election time.
