Key part of HeathCare.gov passed test, but Anonymous Shopper shelved anyway
Washington (CNN) - When the troubled federal health care website came online, the key "Anonymous Shopper" function was nowhere to be found - even though it passed a key test almost two weeks before HealthCare.gov launched.
That successful test, noted in documents obtained by CNN and confirmed by a source close to the project, contradicts testimony from an Obama administration official overseeing HealthCare.gov, who told lawmakers earlier this month the function was scrapped because it "failed miserably" before the October 1 launch.

ACA=The true american nightmare. Only the wealthy will survive this debacle. If you have kids encourage them a term of service in the military, then they will be exempt from this debacle. Its the only thing saving my butt right now.
Everything about this regime, has failed America.
Donna, saying, allow me to frame a scenario for your Thanksgiving prayer, the first female president coming in three years, a Democrat controlled senate, and house, and your Koch brothers red faced mad at the world, aahhh, now that's soothing
One would think that if an "anonymous shopper" did't work, then none of it could work. I said on Oct. 2 that what they probably needed was a serious "do over." Scrap it all, and rebuild it from scratch. But that would mean taking the site down for an extended period of time, which would be a lot better than what is going on now.
Whatever.
Only 12 defects instead of the 20 claimed by Chao. So ... what, uh, it's a gigantic scandal that AnonymousShopper isn't up and running?
Wouldn't it have been cool if CNN had spent this much effort investigating claims of WMD back in 2002? This whole article is just a big squirrel trying to get a nut.
