They're not gutless, they're CORRUPT as democrats.

Obamacare hands a profitable industry over to the government to control; or, that is the end game...

It doesn't matter to a corrupt Republican; they gain just as much as the democrats do with Obamacare.

They do NOT want it gone. Politicians these days strive to get elected in order to:
1. Make a lot of easy money
2. Set themselves up for nice living for the rest of their life.
3. Make laws that shore up their security in these pursuits.
4. Make laws to keep the population handcuffed so we don't jeopardize their security, wealth harvesting and power.

“They do NOT want it gone.”

BINGO!!

“”I thought we campaigned on repealing it,” the lawmaker continued. “Now that it’s our turn, I’m finding there’s about 50 people who really don’t want to repeal Obamacare. They want to keep it.”

Other conservatives are saying similar things. In an email exchange Thursday afternoon, I asked one member where the latest bill stood. “We absolutely do not have the votes to repeal it,” he answered. “The fact that some members are balking at even allowing states to waive out of some of Obamacare regulations is proof positive. We’ve gone from ‘repeal it root-and-branch’ to ‘Mother-may-I opt out of some of Obamacare’ — and we still are having trouble getting the votes.”

In a phone conversation Thursday afternoon, another Republican, Rep. Steve King, quibbled a bit with the number of House Republicans who don’t want to repeal Obamacare — he would put it in the 40s — but felt certain there are lots of Republicans who don’t want to repeal. “If you don’t want to get rid of federal mandates to health insurance, then it’s pretty clear you don’t want to get rid of Obamacare,” King said.”
