re: Republicans should thank John McCain

One that is not thanking him is Mitch McConnell. All other things aside, having a bill you bring to the floor fail when you have a majority is a major, major failure.


But I agree, this is actually a good outcome for Republicans, politically speaking. No telling what happens in conference, and had the House passed this skinny repeal it would have been disastrous.
