The Republicans have really been behind the curve in promoting Obamacare for the elections. Maybe they figure that people whose health care costs have doubled or tripled will actually associate that with Democrats.
That is a very risky assumption to make.
By now they should have been actively tarring ALL Democrats with Obamacare. It is not hard to do.
“Have your health insurance premiums gone up? Are they going to go up more? You bet. Democrats did that to you. Just Democrats. ONLY Democrats. If you DON’T want to pay a whole lot more for health care, then DON’T vote for Democrats. ANY Democrats. Ever.”
Republicans have this bad habit of not attacking Democrats when they are weak. Instead, Republicans back off and try to “play nice”, which Democrats would *never* do if their roles were reversed.
So Republicans must learn: When Democrats are in the gutter, STOMP ON THEM. Don’t be stupid and help them up.
Again.
The republican "leadership" is in the tank for the dims.
