My understanding is that a full repeal requires 60 votes and we only have 52, but this 3 part fix and replace is done as reconciliation bills which require 51 votes.

That why they are doing it this way. I can except this as a necessary bitter pill.

For the love of God, somebody please explain to me why full repeal would require 60 votes when it was passed with 51? What the hell?
