Make like Nike and "Just repeal it!"

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Let the waffeling Republicans vote AGAINST full repeal.
Time for them to show their cards.

[southernindymom]

It’s time for them to show their cards. This way, we know who to primary out of office over the next two elections. BUT we have to get a true Conservative Republican to run against them and then SUPPORT that candidate with plenty of cash bc the RNC sure won’t.

[Souled_Out]

Who falls for this cap? Rand Paul is a dim witted moron, putting himself before America!

[mastertex]

How many of these rotten turds are up for re-election in 2018 and 2020.....the RNC better NOT give them a dime for their re-election. Primary everyone of them.

[The_Republic_Of_Maine]

In Maine there are 251 MEN and 1 million three hundred thousand pussies!

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), a leading conservative in the U.S. Senate and driving force on the healthcare debate that has played out this year, told Breitbart News exclusively on Tuesday he is pleased that the U.S. Senate is going to move forward on efforts to pass a clean partial repeal of Obamacare

That pleased feeling didn't last long.

[momincombatboots]

So you were for the 70 Billion dollars in direct pYments to insurers? You aren’t alone.. most of Congress wanted an #insurer bailout.

[GailA]

All Reps, and 1/3rd of senate.

[bert]

The problem boils down to a few women.

Give them some new shoes and a few billions and they might come around.

[ealgeone]

IF we vote for true conservatives we’ll only have about 15 or so Senators.

[AnotherUnixGeek]

That Congress should pass a clean repeal of Obamacare now, the bill they did in fact pass in 2015, then worry about the replacement later. Former President Barack Obama vetoed that bill then, but President Trump would sign it.

That's why the GOP Senate will not pass a repeal of Obamacare now - because Trump would sign it. Passing repeal when they knew Obama would veto it was an easy empty gesture, which the GOP specializes in. Passing repeal when your president is in the Oval Office and would sign it means rolling back what is perceived to be an entitlement and requires backing up your stated principles and leadership, both of which are too much to ask for from the GOP.

FWIW there is this from Jonah, over at Never Trump Central:

[faucetman]

I’m sorry you feel that way.

I think Rand Paul is a principled intelligent straight talker. I LIKE HIM!

He is RIGHT on Repeal then Replace.

He is one of our BEST Senators.

“...The problem boils down to a few women...Give them some new shoes...”

Yes - this is exactly what I told my husband last night.

However, new shoes and a few billion won’t do it for them to come around. They are rotten feminists who want Planned Parenthood funded. That is the sticking point for them even though they might not be saying it.

The desire for our government tax dollars to fund the killing of babies is holding up their vote. It is utterly and totally disgusting. And they will hold out - shoes won’t do it (I wish it would).

[Principled]

I’m with you southernindymom -

ID the twofaced losers and make them pay dearly. PDJT and Mitch have so very much to hold over their heads.

I’m hopeful this will be part of today’s nice lil luncheon.

[SamAdams76]

The RNC is the problem. Time for a new party and let the GOP go the way of the Whigs.

[Beowulf9]

Clean ‘partial’?!

Gimme a break. No such thing as a clean ‘partial’.

Clean is everything is off the table.

[traderrob6]

Your comment displays who’s truely the “dim witted” one.

Rand Paul with a couple others are the only true conservatives in the Senate who care more about the direction of this country then themselves.

[b4its2late]

We’ll see how far this gets.
