http://www.realclearpolicy.com/arti...ng_for_republicans_reform_or_else_110226.html This article was written by a republican, and his fear is delicious! We are a week away from another government shut down if the republicans can't get a budget together, and their first failure to do anything to obamacare was a joy as well. For years it seems republicans were jamming government to fuck obama now its starting to look like they were jamming government because they are incompetent beyond belief. The article points out several important facts. *92% of the time the party in the presidency loses seats in the house during the midterms *Polling shows only 1/3 of voters will blame obama for healthcare, the other 2/3 will blame Trump and the republicans *48% of Republicans now support single-payer or "medicare for all" (which the author describes as " Soviet-style healthcare") The best part is the solution the author advocates for (this is the moment where the "do it faggot!" meme is best applied) for the author says republicans must pass somekind of healthcare reform, no matter how bad. We all know the republican solutions will end up even worse than the ACA, likely resulting in the above numbers getting even worse for republicans, despite their ability to say they actually did something.
Republicans know how to do two things: win elections (via bigotry mainly) and reward the rich. They do not care to do much else.
