It's the Democrats who have policies. The ACA is policy. Repubs have NO alternative to that, except go to the ER or die early. Their position on everything is NO, NO, with no understanding of what the underlying problem is or complete disregard of the problem.

Accordingly, I think you are mistaken in believing that Democrats need to come up with alternative policies.
