MICHAEL GOODWIN: Good Luck With That, Dems

File this one under Hope Springs Eternal. Or maybe under the Definition of Insanity.

With Republicans in Congress planning a series of votes to repeal the federal health care takeover, some Democrats see the clash as a fresh chance to convince the public that Obamacare is really on their side.

Good luck with that. The debate on the bill consumed nearly a year, and at no time did a majority of the public support it. President Obama and party diehards passed it anyway and convinced themselves that, once voters knew more about it, they'd get on board.

We know how that turned out. The GOP won the House in a historic rout, picked up six Senate seats, won key gubernatorial races and about 700 new state legislative seats.

And Dems want to keep selling this turkey? Slow learners.
