O'Malley: Health Care Website Fix Could Take Another Month

Fixing glitches on Maryland's online marketplace could continue for as long as another month and a half, Governor Martin O'Malley said Friday, comparing the effort to dealing with a hurricane or a snowstorm.

Still, he said improvements are being made every day. Maryland Health Connection, the online portal where people can shop for health plans and enroll in them, also updated the numbers of people who have visited the website and created accounts since it opened on Oct. 1, when it ran into problems almost immediately.

"There's a lot of different families and a lot of different entities and individuals going through this, but my sense is probably for the next month or so - month and a half - we will be working out the glitches on the portal," O'Malley said.

Martin, people are shopping, but no one is buying because prices have doubled and tripled. Admit it. They log in, look, and sign off. They shop elsewhere, and policies are now cancelled. They log in again, shop, and find that the out of pocket will steal their house, and log off.

They (We) are deciding not to sign up, and pay a fine, which is designed to take our homes away, anyway.

This is what's happening in REAL life, contrary to the MSM Carney fed bs.

O'Malley. It doesn't matter if you fix it up or not. You and the other dingbat liberal Democrats have had 4 years to prepare for this, and you failed. But, in a heart beat you would take my gun, attend a gay marriage, let a guy that murdered my family live, and allow a non US citizen to attend college in Maryland. As far as I'm concerned, you are in time out.

Yeah, every time a hurricane hits here, I deal with it within a month or so...

Idiot.

It won't work in a month either. The system has bad code and will take years to fix.
