More Recognition of Increasing Cost of ObamaCare

Karl Rove has an excellent column this week in the Wall Street Journal about the inevitable increases in costs that will result from the ObamaCare bill.  He talks about the same Congressional Budget Office estimate that I blogged about two weeks ago -- it increased its estimate of costs by $115 billion more than it assumed when the bill was passed.  He also makes the interesting forecast that the government will seek to keep the Medicare Advantage plans from announcing their 2011 increases until after the election.  It's well worth reading, and there are 416 comments (most not very coherent) as of today.
