The Republican leadership is completely oblivious to the fact that they are bleeding support from their base every day. Their inaction and cowardice is what will cost them the next election and it is the Republicans and Conservatives who are going to do them in by staying home, not the Rats.
I’m not sure that defunding, at least beyond a token vote to do so (iow don’t close the govt) is the right approach.
Pelosi was wrong when she said that the bill needed to be passed in order for people to find out what’s in it. In reality it needs to actually go into effect in order for people to find out what’s in it.
And what’s in it is a whole lot of pain for a while lot of people who were duped into believing otherwise.
Sometimes tough-love is called for. In order for the voting public to wake up and realize the consequences of voting Democrats into power, they need to feel, actually FEEL, the pain this will cause. And to see how quickly Obamas signature accomplishment lurches towards a very high profile collapse.
At that point, with the Dems demanding -even begging- for quick modifications to lessen the pain the GOP will have all the leverage in the world to not only demand a full repeal, but to reap the electoral benefits as well.
ObamaCARE IS Romney’s greatest imposition since
gay marriage he imposed upon Massachusetts and Nation.
The GOP (Romney and Rove and their evil GOPe) will
NEVER eliminate ObamaCARE/RomneyCARE???
Why? IT IS THEIRS, and they are not even under its yoke.
