Democrats close campaign by hammering GOP on health care

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Democrats are pinning their hopes on health care as a winning message in the final days of the midterm campaign, saying they will not be distracted by President Trump's attempts to make the election about immigration.

When Trump this week proposed ending birthright citizenship, House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) responded by hammering Republicans on health care. Meanwhile, the House Democrats' campaign arm recently launched another wave of ads targeting GOP lawmakers for their ObamaCare repeal votes.

"Remember that we close on health care and corruption and they can close with whatever toxic racist stew they want," Sen. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii) tweeted on Tuesday.

While Trump is focusing on immigration issues like birthright citizenship and a “caravan” of migrants making its way to the U.S. border, Democrats say they will not be dragged into a debate that distracts from health-care issues leading up to Election Day.

“Clearly, Republicans will do absolutely anything to divert attention away from their votes to take away Americans’ health care,” Pelosi said on Tuesday.

1. What Dems SHOULD be saying.

Dems should issuing this challenge to the voters:
"What are you afraid of?"
- being endangered by a bunch of poor people carrying their kids to safety here in America ? vote fot Republicans.
OR
- being endangered by diseases like diabetes, heart, stroke, blood-pressure problems, infections, unwanted, or threatened pregnancies, or any number of medical problems you've never even heard of yet? vote for Democrats.http://ThankGodforLiberalDemocrats.org

2. The Republican ploy fell rather flat, didn't it?

Apparently a lot of people still remember that the Affordable Care Act did away with insurance that didn't cover pre-existing conditions, and that not one Republican voted for it. Republican claims that they're the party that will protect your health insurance are running aground. "Damn! People like having insurance cover their pre-existing conditions. Who would have imagined it???"

I'd like the media to be a little more diligent about informing the citizenry that the Caravan of Doom inching its way north is still farther away from the United States than Seattle is from San Francisco.
