Obama and Beebe's actions remind me of the Pied Piper story. The Pied Piper piped a tune that hypnotized all the children of the community who followed him into a cave and were never seen again.
The Washington Democrats, using no logic or political skills, followed Obama as he led them into the destruction of their political careers. Now Beebe is following Obama's piping, and Arkansas Democrats are following him.
Many of us knew Beebe was dancing to Obama's tune on every issue, but the general public, even most Republicans, did not realize the degree to which he was doing that. Now that his plan for Obamacare in Arkansas is revealed, everyone will know how liberal Beebe really is. Every Republican candidate in Arkansas can use Beebe's Obamacare in the next election. That is, unless Democrats stand up to him and save their careers.
The only reason I can possibly see for Beebe's actions is that he is aiming perhaps for a Washington appointment. After implementing Obamacare in Arkansas, I don't see how he would ever have a chance at the Senate or other high office. I wonder if the Democrats are willing to sacrifice their careers for that.
