This is breaking on McConnel's twitter feed. Statement to abandon repeal/replace for a straight repeal with a 2 year delay to replace.

[James R. McClure Jr.]

Peace, springwater13,

Either the Republicans pass repeal this year or they will lose significantly next year as many who supported them into the majority will stay home or vote them out.

This plan just died. A third Republican just came out against this. Sure wish McConnell had the guts to put them on record and call the vote.

RE:"Actually it’s good they will repeal. "

When will this happen?

[houeto]

It’s dead LS. A third (R) just announced a no vote. McConnell does not have the stones to call a vote and put them on record. Sad.

RE:”I think that is brilliant. They will have repealed Obamacare with a sunset provision’

???, a bit optimistic.

[sickoflibs]

RE:”You just know they’ll keep passing extensions to the 2 years.”

Looks like they wont be doing that

[longtermmemmory]

they are all swamp monsters.

They had no real fight. They were just camera posers to fool the rubes.

I don’t know what is wrong with them. We pay these people $170,000 a year plus at least that much again as benefits and they think they don’t have to actually do anything to earn it. I’m sick of them, they are a disgrace

RE:”What's the plan during the 2 year delay? Does Obamacare continue unchanged? ‘

Looks like the two year delay wont be an issue now.

[silentknight]

Republican representatives are a bunch of liars. They never intended to repeal Obamacare.

Lies lies and more lies.

[sickoflibs]

You got your answer.

"It’s dead LS. A third (R) just announced a no vote. McConnell does not have the stones to call a vote and put them on record. Sad."

Neil Cavuto of Fox Business is reporting that he will call the vote. I'll believe it when I see it.

The are saying that simple repeal can’t be done under reconciliation.

And they said they don't have the votes to pass the gop reconciliation bill. Do you honestly like the reconciliation bill (which BTW could get much worse in the reconciliation process)? Yes, it may be possible to get 51 votes some day. Would that be a good thing or a bad thing?

[houeto]

Same here Truth. I was thinking a minute ago that if he hopes to save 49 seats in the Senate then he better call a vote. Wonder if he’s thinking the same thing. What would be bad about ridding ourselves of our three liberal females from our side of the aisle?

[Crucial]

Get the government out of healthcare?
What a great idea!

[houeto]

Rush just said that Mitch doesn’t run the Senate. The conservatives don’t run the Senate. He said that these three liberal females run the Senate!

[Truth29]

Yes, with a closely divided Senate and no party discipline, the squishish votes will run the show.

[magna carta]

Agreed. Brit Hume on FOX placed the failure squarely on Trump. I tweeted this dolt and said NO CHARLIE GARD HC & Islamocommie owns this debacle. The liberal press are everywhere.

[Crucial]

ObamaCare: It’s time to flush this turd!

You make it sound like they don't do anything

they passed this:
