[C. Edmund Wright]

Wasn’t that your entire point??????? Repeal????

Or was that another poster.

My original point was for Republicans to not feel like they have to fix the mess the Democrats created. Nothing that Republicans do will ever be credited to them, and finally getting their legislative fingers into it will forever tie them to it where there is no tie today. That tie will open them up to receive all the future blame.

My original point was that this article was psyops designed to coerce Republicans into taking the action instead of letting the chips fall where they may.

Our immediate dialog pointed to two constituencies driving the actions of Republicans: those newly covered, and those thrown off of their previous coverage. I think you said that the former would not vote for Republicans, and I said that the latter were the Republicans' abandoned base. I then suggested that the abandoned base might retaliate against the Republicans who exchanged them for the newly covered, by noting for new representation.

You then asked what good would it accomplish, and that's where we strayed. Going down the sidetrack, I suggested targeting the lieutenants if the generals are protected, in order to make them pay for their disloyalty to their base.

But my original point was always to stay out of it and let the Democrats own it.
