Few things are more important to the White House this year than a successful health care rollout on Oct. 1, when millions of uninsured Americans will be required to obtain private health coverage in government-run marketplaces. Getting it right \u2014 or wrong \u2014 will help determine Mr. Obama\u2019s place in history. <\/p>\n<p>Enter the Obamacare Team, some two dozen political operators and data-crunching technocrats charged with carrying out the biggest health care overhaul since Medicare in the 1960s \u2014 but with more pitfalls. Their job is to sell the law to large numbers of Americans who remain divided about its value and wary of its impact. Republicans have seized on one Democratic description of the health care law as a \u201ctrain wreck,\u201d particularly after the administration announced a politically damaging <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2013\/07\/04\/business\/health-law-delay-puts-exchanges-in-spotlight.html?pagewanted=all\" target=\"_blank\">one-year delay in a key provision of the law<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Working out of war rooms in the West Wing basement, the Eisenhower Executive Office Building and the Department of Health and Human Services, the team is first trying to find in the next year 2.7 million uninsured people between 18 and 35, most of whom are healthy. Just as Mr. Obama\u2019s electoral success hinged on the turnout machine he created in Chicago, the fate of the health care law rests on whether his administration can turn out and enroll the uninsured. <\/p>\n<p>\u201c<strong>The key for us is to take this out of the abstract and make it very, very, very real,\u201d one of the leaders of the effort, David Simas, told a dozen White House aides during a strategy session in the West Wing last week<\/strong>\u2026 [<em>emphasis added<\/em>]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Inserted from &lt;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2013\/07\/24\/us\/politics\/as-clock-ticks-fierce-turnout-effort-for-health-law.html?nl=todaysheadlines\" target=\"_blank\">NY Times<\/a>&gt;<\/p>\n<p><font color=\"#0000ff\">Click through for an on depth analysis of rollout plans.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font color=\"#0000ff\">That one year delay in the employer mandate would never have been necessary, were it not for Republican sabotage slowing down the process od informing them by confusing employers with lies.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font color=\"#0000ff\">Meanwhile, on the evil side of the street, Republicans are preparing their own rollout plans.
