Many, many things Romney can do, as well as a Republican Senate to "change" Obi-Care.
You're 100% correct. But what will Romney actually do? He's said a lot of things, but considering what he thought was a good idea in Massachusetts, I don't see him repealing Obamacare.
But there is no chance of doing this with Ma in the Senate.
I don't think McCaskill will be the deciding factor here, I think it will be Romney. Romney bragged about how he worked with a legislature that was 87% Democrat. You know how you do that? You make your policies 87% liberal. One vote in the Senate is not going to change the guy who wields the pen in the Oval Office.

I'm not dismissing your views. It wasn't an easy decision for me or my friends in Springfield to support Dine. Also, we'll see if Dine's votes cost Akin the election. Current polling suggests he'd lose in a 2-way race. It's my opinion that a strong 3rd-party turnout will help convince the GOP-E to support better candidates. I find it hard to believe that no one in the MO GOP-E knew that Akin was getting support from the Democrats.

Romney had no choice but to work with the legislature. It was Massachusetts.

Ma's vote was the deciding factor first time around for Obi-Care.

She will back Barrack on his plan to implement major new anti-gun legislation.

I would actually support Dine over Ma McCaskill were he the only other choice. But he has absolutely no chance of winning. The Libertarian candidate in 2006 got approx. 47K votes out of 2 million plus votes cast.

The reality of the situation is there are 2 candidates running with any chance of victory. Akin is the only choice for conservatives. RKBA types. etc.etc. McCaskill is the antithesis of all things conservative...
