This will only serve to further increase the divide between the moderate democrats and the fat belt states.
Also as a tax this program can be repealed with a simple 50 votes which is likely to happen if Romney wins.

I think the 26 states may well be in for a shock. I heard some apalling numbers of people that fall into the cracks of Medicare. They miss out for a number of reasons, money, age, etc. However if those 26 states do not take advantage of the PPACA's expansion and these poor souls are still out in the cold, don't forget - they still vote and apparently there are a lot of them.
