Hi clo,
Looking at it from the other side.
Maybe the gop were tactically naive in shutting the government to delay Obamacare. But the woeful technical launch makes their argument look stronger.
Given she has had three years to deliver a viable access model, I think Sebelius is going to have to take it on the chin. It's kinda pathetic to fail at that level. Everyone knew there were going to be a large volume of users. So they needed to think about bottleneck issues.
The system should probably have been set up for spikes up to 10m users.
But who knows. Maybe this is a Republican denial of service attack!! I wouldn't put it past them. They are that crazy.
