Mitt Romney had an unmistakable message for President Obama on Wednesday: Don't drag me into this. The president was in Boston, giving a speech at historic Faneuil Hall and drew on comparisons between the Massachusetts law and the problem-plagued Affordable Care Act. During his speech, Obama acknowledged the problems with ObamaCare and apologized for his clunky rollout. "There's no denying it, right now the website is too slow, too many people have gotten stuck and I'm not happy about it," Obama said. Obama, in accounting for the troubled launch of ObamaCare, cited the Massachusetts health care law's slow start in an effort to keep expectations low. Former Romney adviser Cindy Gillespie, who played a lead role in developing the Massachusetts law, also told Fox News she sees no parallels between the two rollouts. She said the sign-up process in the Bay State went relatively smoothly and was implemented in phases. In November of 2006, Commonwealth Care enrollment began for the residents that were already enrolled to receive "free care" in Massachusetts hospitals. In February of 2007, the state began enrolling residents with annual incomes between 100-300 percent of the federal poverty level, who would receive subsidies to buy Commonwealth Care plans. In July of 2007, the market opened for non-subsidized people above 300 percent of poverty level. Gillespie said that, to ensure a smooth rollout, they purposefully did not launch a massive IT system without phasing or piloting. "Our enrollment numbers were tied to deliberative phasing and at each phase the enrollment happened like it was supposed to," she said. Obama, though, drew parallels on Wednesday.
