Republicans Obamacare Replacement Plan

[Jermyn Davidson]

Why does this just seem like a last-ditch effort to de-legitimize the President's legacy?

The country could have repealed "Obamacare" by simply not re-electing him-- but he won and he won by a lot in a situation where historically, he should have lost by a lot.

So much for the political precedence of "mandate".
So much for attempting to work with the President.
Now, some of my fellow Republicans want to come forward with something that they probably don't even intend to follow through with to see that it becomes law.

Those who would oppose President Obama simply because of who he is have had plenty of time to suggest meaningful revisions. They were heavily courted during the time the healthcare law was being crafted and voted on-- but most refused to even participate.

This Republican will does not support the last-ditch, too-late efforts of these clowns.

Why has a sizeable majority of Americans continued to oppose Obamacare? They may like him, but not this plan.

Why are even Dems and their allies abandoning ship?

Obamacare was a fly by night LAW that was pushed through without many having time to even read the fine print. No one seriously knew what all was in it when election time rolled around. And many who did brought it up in their campaigns, but it fell on deaf ears.

Now the truth is out. Parts of the law are taking effect. The true cost of Obamacare is becoming apparent. My insurance rates have went up. Many family members are paying more for prescriptions instead of less.

I don't know if the Repubs have a better plan or not. They can lay out these talking points but I haven't seen any details as to how they will pull it off.

Either way, Obamacare is not the answer.
