Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius seems confused about where those folks at the CBO get their numbers:
In a HuffPost Live video segment with progressive commentator Marc Lamont Hill, Sebelius was asked whether Vice President Joe Biden's recent comments that there will likely be just five or six million Obamacare sign-ups before the deadline still represented a success. Oddly, Sebelius told Hill that the White House never considered the seven million figure a benchmark for success.
"First of all, seven million was not the administration," said Sebelius. "That was a CBO, Congressional Budget Office, prediction when the bill was first signed. I'm not sure where they even got their numbers."

Once upon a time, however, she said this:
For Obamacare the magic number is 7 million.
That’s how many people the Obama administration hopes to enroll in its new health insurance marketplaces by the end of March. It is starting a huge public education campaign to get people on board with hopes for an assist from the NFL and other professional sports leagues.
“The most daunting aspect is that people still don’t know enough about what’s going to change in the law and don’t have enough information — still have some misinformation,” Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius told reporters on Monday while introducing an updated website and new call center to help get the word out on the president’s health law.......
........Sebelius on Monday said 7 million is a “realistic target.”

When you fail to reach a “realistic target”, what does that indicate?
