    Medicare may not be the third rail of American politics -- that distinction belongs to Social Security -- but politicians who alter it put their careers at risk.

One might also blame the Medicare provisions in the 2010 healthcare law -- particularly the reductions to Medicare Advantage subsidies -- for helping the GOP take over the House in that year's elections, although that was just one of many problems for Democrats back then.
