The next to last Senate vote to get Obamacare passed by that once-esteemed body was held early this morning.

Four years is an impossibly long time to keep a con going. Six months seems to be about the limit for President Obama. Even among Democrats his approval rating has slipped in the last month by 10 points and though that still leaves him with 82 percent of his party faithful, his overall approval rating is down to 57 percent.
