So the House has kicked the can to the Senate.  Will not be any smoother sailing getting to 50 votes under budget reconciliation.  This is just step one of three.  Step two is the Senate bill.  Step 3 is reconciation and a new vote.  Then it can go to the president to be signed......or not if Trump doesn't like what comes out of the sausage maker.

Meanwhile Democrats are looking plain silly in their response to this.  Is anyone stupid enough to believe they are really happy about this? They simply look like the ineffectual buffoons that they are.......  The fact is the GOP has been running on repeal and replacement of Obamacare for the last 8 years and have decimated Democrats at the local, state and Federal level.  They are completely clueless if they think passing a repeal and replacement is more damaging than doing nothing.

They can't do anything but try to make people fearful, predict disaster, and claim that Republicans will be "scarred" by this in the next election.  Of course the whole thing will be rewritten in the Senate before anything happens.
