The Secretary of Health and Human Services is taking political heat for the troubled online roll-out of the Affordable Care Act. On CNN, she dismissed Republicans' calls to resign, "My job is to get this fully implemented and to get the web site working right. And that's really what I'm focused on…I work at the pleasure of the President. He is singularly focused on making sure we deliver on this promise. That's what I'm committed to doing." Sheryl Gay Stolberg covers the political personalities, ideas and culture of Washington for the New York Times.
