Discussion: The Senate's Plan C On Obamacare Repeal May Already Be Dead

Then Ryan, then Hatch. Not like I’m endorsing him, but you have to get all the way down to the Secretary of State before you get to a person who is actually competent, who is capable of managing an institution.

At this stage, Portman is concerned.
No flies on him.
Even they have their standards.

“I did not come to Washington to hurt people,” Capito wrote in a blistering statement. “Especially since they keep showing up at my Town Halls bitching about Health Care. Jesus, just the other day I had a bunch of people refuse to shake my hand because they were afraid they’d catch something that their insurance didn’t cover, all because of my vote!. We haven’t even VOTED yet and they’re ALREADY pissed off at me!"

Seriously. Where’s the fun in joining the GOP if you don’t get to hurt people. What’s up with that?

Thank-you for putting in the work to get through. I’m really thankful for the TPM’ers who live in red states/districts and can pressure these chuckleheads as constituents.

Just like abortion.

It should be noted that all three Senators are also women who were excluded from the discussion and crafting of the replacement bill.

Perhaps McConnell would have had an easier time getting to fifty had they been included.

If McConnell allowed the vote, tea partiers could go on record, once again, for repeal, but the GOP “moderates” who voted for repeal would be in a bind. They’d have to admit, at least to themselves, that they voted for repeal only when they knew Obama would protect them from themselves. I don’t know which group makes McConnell more angry, those on the far right or the “moderates”, so maybe repeal is DOA.

Really? Tillerson seems to be in over his head. He may have been a successful CEO, but I don’t see him as an effective diplomat. And being the head of a government is not like being the head of a corporation.

Admittedly, it goes downhill after Tillerson, but I just don’t see him as a viable option either.

When Ryan can do it without having his treason discovered.

Republicans. That is the plan of your leadership. It’s what they want. It’s what they insist Republicans accept.

Y’all need new leaders.
