On Thursdays broadcast of the Fox News Channels Special Report, Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) predicted that the Graham-Cassidy bill will receive 50 Republican votes and votes from a few Democrats.
Graham said, Ill be honest with you, Ive never been more excited than I am right now. We need 50 votes to get this over the finish line. The president has been working like a tiger. The vice president, Mitch McConnells going to give us a vote. And I can tell you this, if you want money and power out of Washington, you want to end the march to single-payer health care, this is your last, best chance.
This is the biggest change in health care in my lifetime. This is federalism versus socialism. I think were going to get 50 Republicans to vote for federalism. And Ill make a prediction, a couple of Democrats are going to come on board because their state does so well.

I hope this is not a final destination. I’ll take it as an incremental step toward a full repeal, but I don’t like it enough to consider it a true solution.
Bet he is wrong..
The GOP will fail again..bet on it..
Hope Moore wins maybe that will scare the GOP
It’s never a final destination. That’s what Repukes never seem to understand. Just because this passes doesn’t mean you can’t come back for more. Next time mandates won’t even be on the table so you’re starting from a stronger position. Rand Paul is completely lost in the Senate. The country won’t come back in a day.
The bill will fail and I bet if Moore gets in he’ll be a hard no to bills like this. Not exactly helpful if you ask me (see my previous comment)
The guy who was polling at 0%?
I read the bill, sounds like a lot of pork to me, and Seniors medicare raises a lot...those people have worked hard enough...but no, we have to feed the illegal aliens before we can help our own people...
Any democrats in red areas looking to keep their seat next year just may vote for this.
Graham is a lot more excited over having something with his name on it than I am
He’s an anal orifice and this is to get him reelected
If the mandatory “ insurance” tax is still there we are still slaves
The guy who was polling at 0%?

THIS is not a repeal, and the EXEMPT remain
EXEMPT, when they should be tarred and feathered.
Lindseed Grahamnesty, not Moore or Strange. Don’t you remember the presidential campaign?
We need to move this rock, and about forty other rocks, some a little, and some a lot. Then, after 2018, we will need to start moving these very same rocks again, and start moving some new ones too.
I want to know who the Democrats are who are going to support this bill. I really doubt it will happen. I am having a tough time coming up with names, maybe Heitkamp, Donnelly, or Tester?
What a “struggle” to push a push a half-baked POS over the finish line! The game should not change, most of them need to be removed from office, and I am only talking about the Republicans.
It's a step in the right direction.
Right, full repeal is simply not possible with this Congress. They need to do this incrementally, and it is a good first step.

It’ll surely scare the Devil Poop out of Brian “Fake Life” Williams!

Which Dems, and why haven’t Republicans been trying to get any before now?
