Then, there's always a necktie party

 This fight ain't over yet


Repealing Obamacare
C.K. MacLeod writes at Hot Air: ...

(Another way to put it: Passing a multi-trillion dollar government takeover of health care supported by only 35 percent of the public takes 60 Democratic senators; repealing such a monstrosity does not. Though it will take many many more Republicans in the House and Senate than there are now.)

On the One-Yard Line?
Senior White House Advisor David Axelrod said today that supporters of Obamacare are "right on the one-yard line."

It would be more accurate to say that the Democrats are on the 1-yard line -- with the clock running down -- but they trail by 8 points and it's 4th down. They have almost no margin for error. They need to sneak the ball across the goal line for a touchdown (at 1:00 AM, in the Senate), followed by a 2-point conversion (in the House). Then they need yet another score in overtime (back in the Senate) to win. All the while, they'll have to overcome the roar of the crowd, which is audibly and increasingly against them.

So, your saying, that if, say, even one Democrat Senator, God forbid, was to die or something like that......maybe this huge steaming pile of crap wouldn't pass.....?

I'm just saying..... wink wink, nudge nudge.

I am bouncing wildly between depression and homicidal anger over this shit.

Rope. We're gonna need a shit load of rope.

What? Are you kidding? Everyone knows that dead senators get to keep their seats and vote, especially if they are democrats.
