Thank you. I see a crack here if even some RATS are beginning to have buyers’ remorse. If we have a crack, let’s drive a wedge and try to help save our country. We need to exploit this crack.
Who are the sixteen others who signed? I see Durbin may actually be seeing the light. This is funny if it wasn’t so sad.
Repubs are NOT your friend, nor mine. I believe you’re delusional to believe otherwise.
I think the only reason they banded against it was the force feeding required to pass it; if it was more ‘moderate’ (or even ‘their’ idea) they would have happily cast aside the Constitution, as much as the Dems, and voted AYE all around.
Like everything in D.C., it’s about politics. It’s not about the People nor the Constitution. When more people wake up to that fact, the better we’ll be off.
Uh, are you sure about that? I feel sorry for you when you cannot even give credit where credit it due. I happen to know for a fact you are wrong. Congressman Steve King is a good friend of mine and he fought like heck to stop Obamacare. Michelle Bachmann was also a stellar fighter. So you’re alleging that ALL Republicans really preferred to vote for Obamacare? Then why didn’t they?
Romney ran a Johnny One Note Campaign. Used a poison dart blow gun when he should have used a cannon loaded with grape shot because he had pleanty of stuff he could fill that cannon barrel with..
They failed to hammer away on what will happen when Obama gets returned; The Obama past due 2013/14 Tax Increases.
There are a whole series of tax increases including the medical device tax that the republicans could have exposed for piblic discussion...
The impact of Obamas gagging energy.resources.(a socialist construct never branded as such) with policies requiring reliance on intermittent sources wind and solar and that resulting in massive corruption .,restricted use of drilling, and coal ,bans and on fracking, and resulting prices doubling on everything.. This was a bread and butter issue which reached into every demographics pocketbook including accepting the demo-com definition of hyphenated African-Hispanic -Americans .
.The impact of Supreme Court Appointments.. 18,000 new IRS agents and on and on. . Some were very briefly touched most werent and Benghazi/ foreign policy was left to languish. Then there is Obamas personal extravagance and behavior refusing to visit Nashville after its disaster showing up at New Orleans after Mitt visited it. Even after the Christi thing if that was brought up it would have blunted the impact.
Instead we got a sales pitch on executive ability but not the reason why one should toss the old model and buy his. That print and tv pitch , 20 million new jobs, was given a discrarded dose of skepticism .
In addition Rove who I understand was handling the Charter PAC senate campaign played games. His material never warned voters that IF OBAMA GETS RE-ELECTED AND SENATE CONTROL REMAINED . .. OBAMACARE AND ALL THE TAX INCREASES THAT GO WITH IT WILL NEVER GET REPEALED Let alone tie into or cover the formentioned grape shot which would have perhaps changed that body. I don’t recall any of that material directed toward that fact.

too bad mittens didnt get a chance to tweek oromabambamcare and save us all...
RINOs always show up just when DEMs need them. For O's porkulus bill, Snowe, Collins, and Specter.
Credit? I faintly remember the GOP having the whole of Congress and boosting the bottom line like children in a candy store.
What I’m contending is the GOP is just as culpable of non-Constitutional (when has THAT old piece of paper been heard in the ‘esteemed’ halls of Congress recently) as the rest of the no-good, low-down, rotten SOBs.
Let me know when those we put into office have been able to roll back A law, let alone any department or TRUE CUT in spending.
