The Oregon exchange is certainly an abject failure. It was a large failure on the part of the vendor (Oracle) and on management that did a crappy job of monitoring the vendor and auditing their work (the Oregon Health Authority). Plenty of blame to go around with a doubt.
But how does one flawed implementation point to a problem with the law? You say "most failed". That is bullshit. Oregon's failed. And now we are moving things along to piggy back on the national exchange. This is not the first IT project that has ever failed, nor the largest. We need to learn from it, without a doubt, but a failure of the IT project does indicate that the law behind it is a failure. As noted by others, plenty of exchanges have worked very well. IT projects fail. Demand accountability (high level people have been fired and Oracle is getting sued), learn from mistakes, recover the best you can, and move forward.
