DeMint has a fund raising letter out. It is virtually impossible to repeal this law through legislative means because of the 60 vote rule in the Senate and the two thirds rule on a veto. This is NONSENSE. The only realistic way i s through the court.

Nonsense. Relying on the courts is going to be futile. We’ll need to establish legislation to kill it, and it can be voted on next January 21, when alot fewer democrats are in office.

Except that this bill will be passed through reconciliation by 51 votes- NOT the normal 60 required for legislation.

This keeps the issue in the public eye and plus we can then get candidates to pledge to support the effort to repeal healthcare in Nov. This is a good tactic.
