Senate won't vote on ObamaCare repeal bill
By Alexander Bolton - 09/26/17 02:11 PM EDT

Senate Republicans have decided to not vote on their latest ObamaCare repeal legislation, signaling a collapse in their last-ditch effort to kill off President Obama's signature law.

"We don't have the votes so it's probably best we don't do the vote," said Sen. Steve Daines (R-Mont.) after the GOP conference met at its regular weekly luncheon. "We've lost this battle, but we're going to win the war."

The last-ditch bill sponsored by Sens. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) and Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) would dismantle ObamaCare’s insurance subsidy program and Medicaid expansion and convert their funding into block grants to states.

The friggin GOP can never get their act together. Nor will they ever get Dem support on anything until the party of Stupid does a full repeal. Only then will the party of no present any bipartisanship replacement ideas of their own. The GOP is dead as a majority party. They don’t know how to use it to their advantage.

If memory serves, what we got got from the Big Orange One was a campaign promise to Repeal (nothing about Replace) on his 1st day in office.
