A delayed bill will eventually be a good bill - Shigeru Miyamotorumpu
That would assume the bill actually gets worked on and improves in that time.
Well, it can't get much worse I guess, right?

Sure, but the facts wont change. They need to revise the bill again to change the tally.
If they get rid of the EHB, tuesday group wont support (EHB includes provision for pre existing conditions). If they dont, FC wont. The "compromise" they reached was let the states decide if they want to keep the provisions. It got some moderates in the yes column but it wasnt enough.
wrong.

Yeah and Jack died of a preexisting condition.
Fully expect that ACA will not be gutted, instead minor edge fixes, and the Republican message will be "we got rid of the onerous requirements of Obamacare, returned choice and power to the states (waivers) and the current system is serving our folks well in rural areas and cities". And it will be an easy sell.
Maybe they'll schedule the health care vote, government budget, and funding for the wall on the same day and we'll all collapse into a political black hole

They're just punting the responsibility for the bad decision to the governors. It's hilariously short term thinking that sticks Republican governors in extremely awkward spots and likely hurts their re-election chances.

anyone else waiting for the Hillary interview on CNN?
I mean, this is the same party that passed a bill last month opening the door for wellness programs to determine eligibility based on your genetic fitness, so yeah.

So anything that says Obama, is fair game?
I bet that's all he sees. The name.... and wants it gone.

Eh, not really.
Not literally waiting, but I am curious about it, yeah. Always interested in what HRC says.

Trump: "You know what a donor is? I use to be a donor, I use to get everything I wanted." LOL Speech to Air Force Team
I still don't know how he got through the State of The Union address.

Can we have context, please, for those of us reading the thread but not watching the interview live?

She can't say she did not support it, she might want back into this game again someday.

The strike itself wasn't objectionable. It's what happened before and after the strike that's the problem.

It would be hard to get worse. IIRC the CBO said a straight repeal with no replacement would end up with more people insured than if they pass the AHCA
You don't understand, the damn Kenyan MUST be put in his place.

It's so fucking frustrating that being a policy-guru, and having the ability to discuss policy with nuance is at odds with what is needed to be elected.

What she should of said is how she would of done the strike differently, not support Trump's feeble attempt of strength.
It pains me listening to this and then remebering all the discussing that's been going on yesterday evening and today about wtf Trump even means.

I think that any attempt to have a vote on healthcare closer to 2018 would probably be far less likely to succeed.
It looks like leadership skills generally go down as you get above an IQ of 120. Turns out to win elections you likely don't want your very best and brightest running.
Can you imagine Hillary's answer if asked about the Civil War? It'd go on for hours. Instead we have, "The Civil War, yeah why'd that have to happen exactly?"

I'd pay good money to hear Hillary let her guard down and swear like a trooper about Comey.
And he ain't keeping it next November.
