Four embattled Republican senatorsColorados Cory Gardner, Georgias David Perdue, Arizonas Martha McSally, and Montanas Steve Dainesappear to have come to the belated conclusion that voting to kill health care coverage for millions of Americans may turn out to be a political liability in November.
As reported by Sahil Kapur, writing for NBC News:
WASHINGTON Republican senators facing tough re-election fights this fall are expressing support for insurance protections for people with pre-existing medical conditions, running ads at odds with their own recent votes and policy positions.
All four are on record as voting to repeal the Affordable Care Act, which prohibits insurance companies from denying coverage to Americans on the basis of what those companies euphemistically refer to as pre-existing conditions. And now all four are desperately backtracking on those votes, blatantly lying directly to their constituents in a series of ads that suggest they did the exact opposite, and that they somehow now support such coverage.

Far to late to take it back now. You voted for it and you own it.
