A Prediction: Republicans will now pivot to attack Health Care Reform since

[flamingdem]

Medicare and Social Security are putting people in their districts in an uproar.

Just saw a repuke on CNN go this direction, saying HCR must be dismantled due to those huge costs.

Low info people and disgruntled people who don't really read the details of HCR which in my case
would save me tens of thousands compared to now... and I'm sure others... will not get up in arms
as much over HCR attacks since they do not really understand them... and in some cases do not want
to deal with the mandate.

Underlying this theme is let's make sure that those less-than people don't get anything since you
probably have insurance through work, it's just the lazy who don't have it... etc.

And of course to reduce HCR is a victory for them since it is Obama's signature achievement.

1. They already tried in the house, and it failed.

It won't work. I think they're screwed completey, it'll become clear after the Primaries begin.

2. As Empowerer just posted:

Kay Bailey Hutchison just said on MSNBC that "the only way to handle the jobless rate is to look at the overburdening regulations in the Obama health care that is causing a freeze on hiring. I talk to businesses from Texas and elsewhere and they're not going to hire until they know what the true costs of the Obama health care plan are."

They are going to try to get people foaming at the mouth on this again like last summer.
