Mitch is pathetic.

Could be, but what he said should be common knowledge to anyone with a sixth grade education, at least a circa 1955 sixth grade education.

Repeal requires 60 votes, neither side will have that. Repeal requires the President's signature, not going to happen. I don't know where these pipe dreams come from that demand that politicians do something that can't be done. We should insist on actions that can be passed by a Republican Congress that the President will be forced to sign. Those are called Appropriation bills and they should be crafted so that the Democrats can't claim that those evil Republicans shut down the government, took away the National Parks, and starved the poor and the children. That's a tall order to be sure, but a Republican controlled Congress, both in the House and Senate can do much more than the current state of affairs.

You are assuming Mitch can't get any Dem votes. If so, he's incompetent. You and Mitch are surrendering before the fight. Must be a 1955 education thing.

What you say is true, but the problem here is the total inability of the DC GOP to play politics to the masses. McConnell is an old fart that only knows how to be clinical. He has no idea how to be political and use that to an advantage down the road. He concedes what he can’t do and leaves it at that. There is no thought process other than what is in his recipe book.

You get the House and the Senate to put a total repeal of Obamacare on Obama’s desk. Then you will force him, all alone to veto that bill that the American people wanted to pass. By then, there will be the full stinking force of Obamacrae in place and it will be devastating to the people and also devastating to Democrats.

But McConnell can’t see how to use power to an advantage.

We do need new savvy leadership because I heard this interview on Cavuto and was totally underwhelmed.

Yep, he is old tortoisehead.
