To the Editor,

What is William Anderson talking about? He says Obamacare has been a disaster in NH. That is a falsehood, right out of right wing La-La Land. Obamacare has been a success in NH. According to the September 14th New Hampshire Business Review, in the first 5 months of 2014, 22,000 previously unisured people now have insurance. This is a 14% drop in the uninsured and that doesn't include the rest of the year since. See http://www.nhbr.com/September-19-2014/Study-NHs-uninsured-population-drops-by-22000/.

According to the Wakely Consulting Group study, "the individual market in New Hampshire grew by 75 percent, or 26,000 people, with more than 40,000 signing up for coverage through the marketplace by May 1." Medicaid coverage also rose 8% or 9000 folks in need! William Anderson is as wrong as wrong can be on this one, blindly following the tea party propagandists. Bravo, Mr President! Bravo Speaker Pelosi! Bravo Shea-Porter. Vote Democrat!
