Does this help the 40 dim congressmen with the folks back home?
I think that depends on who voted on the orginal bill. It won’t help them at all.
They are still going to be saying they are pro Obamacare.
Their GOP opponents can say "why did you vote for the mess in the first place"?
Many of them can say they didn't know and the GOP can say "why do you deserve to be voted in again when you're so clueless"?
