I’m surprised at Senator Johnson. It has never been good policy to try and fix a disaster caused by gov’t involvement with more gov’t involvement.

“First to go should be the “Republicans” who ridiculed Lee and Cruz when they were just doing what common sense dictated had to be done.”

No Kidding! No point in replacing all the RATs if you leave the RINOs.

Senator Johnson defeated the former Senator Feingold to take the Wisconsin seat in 2010. We have liked him a lot until this recent debacle. Now, we are giving him a second look.

ALMOST correct. I live in Wisconsin (for now) and tweaking your language a bit will express how I feel:

He's dead to me. Promising start and utter failure in execution.

My email to my senator, Ron Johnson:

Senator Johnson,

I ready your cockamamie idea about "fixing" the Afordable Care Act in the attempt to put the horse back in the barn with regards to all the people that are losing their insurance. An idea like this is almost like teaching the Germans how to better aim their guns prior to D-Day.

It saddens me greatly that someone I supported and voted for would end up so far on the wrong side of this issue. Even the old senile "maverick" himself John McCain finally got a clue and is pushing for the full repeal of Obamacare, yet here you are trying to save the it and Democrats who own it.

I'm trying to figure out if I was deceived when you ran for election or if your principals are so weak that you just tossed them aside to get along with the Democrats. It's already sad that we have one whole party that is basically against our country as founded, and now you join in to save the day. FOR THEM!!

Your short-sighted idea will not only help let the Democrats off the hook, but it will do NOTHING to help those already hurt by this terrible law. Meanwhile, as Republicans who actually do have a clue stand up to do the right thing (Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, etc). Quislings like yourself stab them in the back.

I don't want Obamacare. AMERICA doesn't want Obamacare. Nothing less than a full repeal will be sufficient. If you don't have the moral compass and intestinal fortitude to do the right thing at least you could sit down and shut your yap. At least then, the low information voters out there might figure out that having Democrats in charge can be hazardous to your well being.

The only thing government does well is screw things up and break things. We need less, not more. I didn't vote for you and ask others to vote for you so we could be enslaved at a date slightly later than if the Democrats were in charge.

Our Sen. Johnson is becoming an embarrassment. He is a naive businessman, not a conservative.

NO on Keep Your Plan Act. The Democrats own the ObamaCare mess, don’t bail them out with a short term fix. ObamaCare is unfixable & needs defunding & repeal.
