McCain cost GOP the house

[B. Kidd]

McCain cost us the repeal and replace....blame lies on him. Course he was a secret democrat the entire time so.

Yeah, I’ve heard that narrative and disagree. He just wasn’t a party puppet. Major initiatives like healthcare should be worked on in a bipartisan fashion and promises made during campaigns should be followed through with. It wasn’t right what Obama did with the ACA, you all bring it up all the time... so don’t be a hypocrite and do the same thing. It’s time to get our government back on track and stop perpetuating the war of two parties.

Agree it SHOULD be a bipartisan thing but democrats won't budge off of Obamacare so its a nonstarter.

Why do they need to budge off Obamacare? Just make it better. The big sticking points were the mandate and covering preexisting conditions. Reps are all saying they now want to cover preexisting conditions and the mandate is now gone. So why not stop with the posturing over who gets to slap their name on it and just make it better? They can work together to lower costs and increase competition... so do it already!

Its costing people way to much....my brother goes without insurance rather than pay the high costs of Obamacare. Government run healthcare is slower,more regulated and costs more.

Obamacare isn’t government run healthcare. It is an exchange that offers private insurance at subsidized rates and sets regulations for essential standards of coverage. People still get care from private doctors and hospitals, not government run care facilities.

Only the people who qualify for subsidized rates use it. For others who don't, the costs and deductibles are unaffordable!

Government came up with it and controls it...it favors certain healthcare companies over others...its raised prices to EXTREME prices. Get government out of healthcare except for those that truly need the help and open up buying healthcare across state lines.

Healthcare was a mess before the ACA. Prices were skyrocketing, sick people weren’t getting covered, it was a bad situation. The ACA has its share of problems. Drug and care costs need to go down, I think the state lines idea could be a good one if it can b

Defeated GOP congressman blames McCain's Obamacare vote for Democrats' House takeover

He's right. Absolutely right. McCain along with RINO scum Murkowski and Collins helped democrats win the house by handing them a gift on a silver platter! 1 of those 3 is thankfully gone and thankfully we will have at least 53 seats in the senate so their little hissy fits won't hold up things we need to pass....they are useless now they can't stop jack!

And, we've got a DEMOCRAT Arizona senator on the way!!!

LOL yeah one that called Arizona the meth capital of the country and told people to join Al Qaeda! Great senator yall helped cheat to win!

So, if God forbid, something happens to your brother and he needs medical care he can not afford, the rest of us will be paying his medical costs. If he gets the flu and ends up in ICU for a week or two he will need about $150,000. Since he does not have insurance, he probably will not seek attention as the illness begins to develop. Like most men without insurance, he will be a tough guy and allow the illness to develop to the stage of needing emergency care and ICU.

Guess government should have stayed out of it then. He works full time but he can't afford the costs of insurance and makes to much to get subsidized.

This is sour grapes. The reason why Republicans lost the House is the Freedom Caucus pushed the party too far to the right. They refused to compromise and nothing got done. They are the biggest losers. The other Republicans should try to work on compromises. To hell with the Freedom caucus.

Hehe...Freedom Caucus is going to expand by 5 new members and majority of those who lost last Tuesday were cuckservatives aka FAKE republican moderates...NOT real republicans. They won.

sorry man, if he makes too much to be subsidized then he can afford it he just doesn’t want to pay for it. Hey, I understand I’ve been there. Paying insurance always seems like a waste of money until you get sick and insurance pays for 10s of thousands in medical bills. The whole system is way too expensive

Pure hor$e$hit...

Captain (Senator) John McCain has done more good for the Republic, and its People, and his Party, than most of these TrumpBot wankers could even conjure, never mind execute.

Not to mention having had more Honor in his little finger than Cadet Bone Spurs has in his entire family tree...

Whoremasters, robber barons, deceivers, pu$$y-grabbers and cowards...

I guess he is there with Republican heroes like Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

That’s a pussy excuse. Republicans ran on repeal and replace and when they had the chance all they could do is repeal. They didn’t have a better plan to replace Obamacare and they were called on it. Place the responsibility where it belongs, with Republican leadership

They didn't even really repeal. They welshed on that too.

Is McCain also responsible for the 7 state houses lost?

The freedom caucus has no power now. They rely on ignorant voters. It is going to be very difficult for Republicans to regain the House as the gerrymanders are undone by the state legislatures or the courts. If I were the Democrats, I would run against these far right cuckoos. To you, Ronald Reagan was probably a fake Republican moderate.

It’s much too expensive, I agree and we need to work on that... unaffordable for everybody who isn’t being subsidized is not a true statement. Affordability varies per person and healthcare was unaffordable for many even before the ACA

No, he's wrong.

DONALD J. TRUMP cost Republicans the House. They promised voters they would be a check on the President's worst excesses and they have not done so. When he separated parents from their children and locked up children in cages, Republicans in the House and Senate stood by and let him do it.

When Donald Trump was appointing crooks in the pay of lobbyists, and grifters to his Cabinet, the Senate confirmed their appointments.

When Trump signed an executive order to end the overtime for the lowest paid workers in America, the House let him do it.

McCain saved health care, at least. But Donald J. Trump cost Republicans the House. With a better map in 2020, he'll cost them the Senate too. Trump got really, really lucky with the electoral map in 2018 for the Senate. That won't be the case in 2020.

Because the Republicans made it their Holy Grail to kill Obamacare, even though its popularity would go up by 20-30 points if you called it ACA instead of Obamacare.

Yawn. MOST people Trump campaigned for won,almost ALL he didn't campaign for because they distanced themselves from him lost. Simple as that. How does Mia Love in BLOOD RED Utah LOSE!? Because she distanced herself from Trump and didn't stand with the president when she should have. Its really simple. This is not the TRUMP party GOP not cuckservative whiner GOP.
