That's not true. The year delay is for the entire mandate which exempts most small business. Also 96% of these employees are already covered by their employers.
Hence, not a huge deal.

Spence, if the administration concedes that implementing that part of the bill before a key election (Democrats defending 21 Senate seats, GOP only 14) is not in their best interests, isn't that tantamount to the administration conceding that it's a terrible idea?

No, it means the treasury department isn't ready to enforce it.
