To: what's up
You can de-fund it...and then what kind of legislation will you get thru the Senate to turn it back to the free market. TORT reform, Medicare reform, transactions across state lines...NONE will pass.
So insurance companies will still continue to drop people because the ACA mandates will STILL BE IN PLACE...just not funded.
Makes no sense.
You do what you can do when you can do it.
By doing so, you rally conservatives and Republicans to your side, thereby setting up landslide victories.
As a leader, you DO NOT tout what you have done when you have done, in reality, next to nothing.
John Boehner has done next to nothing. In fact, he has materially harmed the GOP Brand by his feckless, cowardly leadership.
He, and those in his corner, are nothing but Collaborators.

By doing so, you rally conservatives and Republicans to your side, thereby setting up landslide victories. If you defund Obamacare and at the same time can't get legislation thru that releases insurance companies from ACA mandates this increases the problem.
That's the sure way to lose the House, not win more seats.
If you are going to defund, you have to have some realistic reforms ready to pass into law to fix the problems.
