Our system is so convoluted by design that to unravel the gordian knot of obamacare requires passage of multiple bills by both the house and senate. The democrats are sworn to obstruct and oppose and filibuster at every turn.
If Ryan thinks he can get something past these buffoons, more power to him. Conservative nay sayers will have NO repeal or replace - ever. They are not counting votes - only stomping their feet and snorting disapproval. Nothing gets done this way whether they understand it or not.
Saying you won the election and have the right to your version of repeal and replace is like the three year old driving the car. Have to wonder how many dollars were spent scaring republicans to vote no just to stop the repeal. Making loud noises about who won the election is red meat for the left - they love it when republicans cry.
Step #1 - end the filibuster rule
Step #2 - end the Byrd rule
It should all be part of draining the swamp. The problem is Congress is part of that swamp & there are too many apologists for those RINOs.
