I wouldn’t mind seeing Palin take on Murkowski.

Trending on Twitter: “Save ACA”. Wish we were as good as the left is to have a trend going for “Kill Obamacare”

Collins and Murkowski have voted No. McCain is now needed and on his way to the chamber and Pence will have to cast the deciding vote, assuming there are no more GOP defections.

Collins and Murkowski are a no. They'll have to wait on McCain, who I've heard will be back within the hour.
I wonder if 'Strawberries' will ride up to the steps on a white horse...

Still voting.
Mike Pence presiding to cast the 51 st vote.
Vote is 48-2, with McCain and Johnson(WI) to vote yet.
Murkowski and Collins voted no.
NO DEMOCRATS HAVE VOTED—they are just sitting in their seats. Bastids!

McCain is supposed to show up soon.
Bet he gets a standing ovation when he arrives.
Since this is Kabuki theater, Johnson will vote first as no.49.
Then McCain will vote as #50.
Pence will be vote #51.

Let’s all remember this is step 1 in a long process (of “debate” which means adding pork filled amendments).
I won’t rehash my predictions since the primaries in detail but suffice to say this:
A real repeal will never make it out of Congress. (And a simple repeal is really the only conservative position on this)
This “repeal and replacement”, if it ever reaches the president’s desk, will be nothing substantially different than Obamacare is now.
With that I return you all to continue to enjoy this bit of Congressional theater.
To: Yosemitest
If Trump really wanted to motivate his base and increase his support He'd support a CLEAN "REPEAL ONLY BILL"! The President called for precisely that only a week or two ago. Pay attention...
