GOP eyes another shot at ObamaCare repeal after McCain’s death
By Alexander Bolton - 08/29/18 06:00 AM EDT

Senate Republicans say they would like Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey (R) to appoint a successor to the late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) who, unlike McCain, would support GOP legislation to repeal ObamaCare.

Republican lawmakers say they won’t have time to hold another vote to repeal the law in 2018 but vow to try again next year if they manage to keep their Senate and House majorities.

“If we re-engage in that discussion in some point in the future, it would be nice to have members who enable us to pass it,” Senate Republican Conference Chairman John Thune (S.D.) said when asked about the possibility of ObamaCare repeal legislation coming up for a future vote.

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) said he hopes the next senator from Arizona will be a “strong ally” who “recognizes that ObamaCare is not a proper solution.”

“It hasn’t worked. It’s created a lot of harm and damage to real people,” he added.

Imo, that will never happen if that RINO McConnell is still in charge.

There's a reason they're running this story before McCain's service.

By bringing this up before McCain's cold they're trying to stigmatize the effort as callous and opportunistic. Repeal'll be considered an affront to his memory when the media is done.

Just think, one more American in the Senate, instead of McCain and we would be rid of obamacare.

Nyeh, heh, heh, heh.

If we conservatives really were the heartless, callous B...bleep they paint us as, the line would be;

"Obamacare finally repealed Thanks To the death of John McCain."

I think the McCain's have instructions that his casket be dug up and be be carted over to the Capitol building to vote against a repeal if it happens. Little known fact: A Senator can still vote even if dead. Just look at DiFi. She died 4 years ago.

Here you go freak.  Here you can learn how to hate conservatism.

Mitch McConnell is actually making America Great.

They would make time if they wanted to do it. Instead, they want to use the "maybe" to try and keep the majority.

The only Pub worth voting for is a solid conservative.
