If they don't repeal ObamaCare within the next year, they're done as a party.


If Republicans repeal the ACA without a replacement (or with one that kicks 22M people off of their insurance), they're done as a party.

Lying to your constituents for a decade has consequences, apparently.

In any case, the GOP seems like it can't get to 50 votes on anything.


The GOP isn't really a conservative party.

They need to completely forget about tax reform and focus entirely on health care until they get something done about insurance mandates and essential benefits.
Meh. If they shored up Obamacare and got some tax reform done instead their base would forget about the "repeal Obamacare" promises.

They should forget about repeal and move on to tax reform and minor revisions to NAFTA.

If they need to go nuclear and bribe everyone to get it done, then so be it. This will be their last shot.

AS much as it galls my fundamental principles, I agree.

The most important thing is to defeat the onslaught coming from the DEM/prog/MSM cabal which, if successful, will reduce those principles to quaint historical trivia.

There is an exception to every moral precept.

As much as I abhor the persona of this POTUS, we must not allow his administration to be gutted and delivered over to the cabal that represents the destruction of America.
