Oh, I am convinved NobamaCare will be repealed. The problem is, what will it be replaced with? I have very low confidence in the current Repubs leadership to come up with what we want.

Nobama's fatal mistake is taking on the senior citizens. Nobama's legislation now puts seniors on a track where they will have to use all their savings to cover what was once paid by Medicare. And, Nobama did this to people already in retirement with no chance to earn more.

I think we are looking at generational change here. The kind that requires the dying out of old habits and mores, aka Congressional old-boy system, and the influx of OUR representatives in all branches...;-))

The other side of the coin though, is that somw old habits and mores, (love of country, respect for the constitution, strong work ethic etc) Will be replaced with nanny statism, globalism, further social degradation.

I hope not. I hold out hope that the nation doesn’t lose and actually regains its self-dignity. And I share your trepidations about the beltway republicans. WHY aren’t Paul Ryan’s ideas being embraced by the GOP? Well, I have a pretty good idea. Old-boy network, indeed.
