Vice President Pence said Thursday that Republicans plan to give another try to repealing and replacing ObamaCare if they do well enough in November's elections.

Pence made the remarks to reporters while in Wisconsin to campaign for GOP Senate candidate Leah Vukmir, saying that if she wins, it would help Republicans with their goal of eventually repealing the health-care law.

"We made an effort to fully repeal and replace ObamaCare and we'll continue, with Leah Vukmir in the Senate, we'll continue to go back to that," Pence told reporters.

Collins would be one of the most likely to I would think. But, the GOP is going to gain seats in the Senate... my estimate is 6+ so Senate should pass...

The house is the big question this fall...

I’m glad to see Pence saying this instead of Trump ... because nobody believes what he’s saying.

They should call the Repealing of Obamacare, the McCain Act, since he single handedly sabotaged the repeal last time.

Try? Yes.

Succeed? NO.

There will be enough votes that will switch to ensure government’s life or death power over you continues.

If we’re lucky enough to get 60 there will be conservatives that become squishy moderates. Let Trump deal with them. Linda + Alexander will be next.

“McCain won’t be voting again.”

Are you sure of that? Can we be sure that McCain’s replacement will not decide to vote “No” “in memory” of how John McCain voted against the repeal of ObamaNOcare?

Alexander would be a good Ambassador to Australia. He moved there after the 96 election. Took his plaid shirt with him.

Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.

I’m, still, upset about how Justice John Roberts voted on this, in the SCOTUS!

Why is it always “repeal and replace?”

Just repeal it and drive a stake through its black heart.

Maybe now that Obama’s buttboy is gone, we can finally get it done.
