Go figure . . .

Ken Cuccinelli declared the governor's race in Virginia to be "a referendum on Obamacare."  Even after he lost the race, he was still claiming that it proved peole don't like Obamacare. 

He tried to explain that by saying he was way outspent in the campaign -- and still came close to winning.   Somehow that means that people were voting against Obamacare to send a message.  Fox News picked up the rant and blathered on all the next day that the Virginia race proved people don't want Obamacare.

Fact:   Despite the rollout problems, national polls shows an increase in support for the ACA of about 4% from September to October 2013, which includes the first weeks of the frustrating rollout.

Such is the bubble that this crowd lives in -- the conservatives and their megaphone and echo chamber of FoxNews and talk radio.   It is not the reality-based world of fact and reason as we know it.   

So what are they getting out of this self-deception?    Go figure.
