When the Repubs shut down the government, NPR still managed to run 45 minutes of other news stories every hour. But it feels like they howl about the ACA website for their entire news day, except for an occasional puff-piece on sneaker art in Latin America...

(8,361 posts)For open enrollment on policies taking effect in January. Expect a deluge of enrollments by last week of November and first 2 weeks of December.
Expect another raft of enrollments right before the mandated March deadline.
