Ryan "did what he did" because he is owned lock, stock and barrel by the Chamber of Commerce.

If he really wanted to, he could have easily reintroduced the 2015 repeal bill. Although that bill doesn't fully repeal Obamacare either, it goes much further than the toilet sandwich Ryan put up yesterday. And it had consensus from both the RINOs and House conservatives.

People keep screaming that we don't have the votes to repeal Obamacare, but the half-dozen times a repeal bill was sent to the Senate we didn't have the votes either thanks to Reid and Obama.

Also, an important thing about getting a full repeal bill is that liberal judges will continue to cite Obamacare and parts of Ryan's bill would have been blocked by leftist activists and judges. Repealing Obamacare wipes Obamacare off the law and statutes completely.

Those moderate voters would not vote for the 2015 repeal now that there is an R in office and frankly wouldn’t survive a filibuster. I hope you like the ACA as is, because it looks like that’s what we’re stuck with. Once the ACA was repealed with the ACHA, you’d have got a lot of Dems in the future to make changes for the better. Instead, we are probably permanently stuck with ACA and likely eventually Single payer next time Dems take over.
