I once heard Newt Gingrich say that before he became Speaker of the House, he believed that his opposition was the Democrats helped by the media. After being in the position for a short time, he realized that his opposition was the media helped by the Democrats.
Repeal nobamacare? Doubt it. The pubbies may take back enough of Congress to write and pass a bill repealing it. But nobama will veto it and the pubbies, even by the most optimistic predictions, won’t have enough votes to override the veto.
IMHO, the only way to take this down is to defund it.
This sounds like a flippant remark but I know that it is not. It is utterly profound in depth of meaning and context. I used to think that the MSM supports the Dems. The reality is that the MSM IS the Dems. Theoretically, if the MSM was exactly neutral, the Dem party would have a fight in each election cycle. IF the MSM was just to the right. The Dems would be the perpetual minority party.
The corollary to that would be that every time the Democrats run a weak candidate for POTUS, the Republicans win.
The purpose of campaigning is to cause disinterested voters to become interested.

O’RLY?
Like Bill Clinton?
Stay away from corollaries, they are bad for you.
How about Bob Dole?
McCain trashed anti amnesty conservatives and moderates, and many didn’t vote for him on that alone.
Plus he looked (and was) old and tired.
Plus he campaigned for the man he was running against.
