Rush Limbaugh thinks the health care exchanges are a front for Dem voter registration efforts
No, really, he does.

Limbaugh said there was still an opportunity for the GOP to gain ground on the Democratic Party, but warned if the health care law stood, it would be used as a political tool for the Democrats.
“I think it’s golden opportunity for the Republicans to get back in people’s good graces and stand for something the American people actually stand for,†he said. “And that is their dislike for this. Look what’s happening to these exchanges, guys. I mean, you’ve been talking about it on your program this morning — California health exchange. Most people think that’s where you’re going to go to buy your health insurance if your employer doesn’t provide it. Turns out it’s gonna be run by the SEIU, the AFL-CIO, Cover California, NAACP — a Democrat-voter registration group running the California health exchange. You show up to get your health insurance, they’re going to register you as a Democrat. They’re going to get you to the polls to vote on Election Day as a Democrat. They’re using Obamacare and these exchanges to grow the Democrat Party. The Republicans are sitting around, twiddling their thumbs, worried about immigration and whether the Hispanics like them or not and being skunked on issue after issue after issue, like this is classic. The 2014 midterms are really, really important. Democrats win the House then there is no such thing as a lame duck last two years for Obama. He’s going to have clear sailing.â€

Sorry about the source, but it was actually the least offensive one I could find.

I'd say he is right.
-
I expect he will be proven right - and I expect there to be at least one video of a health care exchange person pushing Democrats once they get underway.
-
Rush will be proved right because he is 99.7% of the time.
OR
You could go with what 0bama says which has been proved to be wrong 97% of the time.

In Massachusetts the recent Warren/Brown race saw the welfare/benefits department sending out voter registration cards to every single recipient, so why should I not believe the Federal welfare/benefits department will not do the exact same thing.
Edited to add that it was also paid for in full by the taxpayers.

You mean motor voter wasn't ?

There is a part of the forms for ObamaCare that involve voter registration.
White House press secretary Jay Carney on Tuesday defended a section of the application for health insurance subsidies under the president's signature healthcare law where applicants can register to vote.

What color is it on yours DUmbass? Read carefully:
As part of our Public Agency Voter Registration program, Project Vote is working with Demos and other allies to ensure that the millions of Americans who will apply for health care benefits under the new Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) are also provided the opportunity to register to vote, as required by federal law.
Under the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA), voter registration opportunities must be provided to persons applying for public assistance programs. This requirement was included specifically to provide voter registration services to individuals who were less likely to register through other means.
