The one thing they can't have is Obama having political victory, especially when they went so hard against the program. It would be the final nail in the coffin for the Republican party.

yes this is all about pride...and the attempt to follow through on a job that you were paid well (hundreds of millions) to do.
The health care industry paid all these right wing candidates, lobby groups, and chamber of commerce hundreds of millions of dollars to defeat Obamacare. They actually BOUGHT the elections of most of these Tea Party crazies...so yea they are doing their best to pay back their masters.
Once this big budget misinformation campaign runs out of steam - and people start realizing how the ACA , while far from perfect, is a great step in the right direction - well this whole Teapublican movement will be utterly discredited and go down as one of the most absurd and corrupt chapters in our history.
