On Senate campaign trail, it's health care, health care, health care

Democrat Jon Ossoff slammed incumbent GOP Senator David Perdue this week for downplaying the threat of the coronavirus and voting four times to overturn the 2010 health care law known as Obamacare. “You’re attacking the health of the people that you represent,” the 33-year-old Ossoff said during a debate.

That race is in Georgia. But a voter in any number of other states could have expected to hear a similar message from Democrats this fall.

From North Carolina to Montana, Democrats trying to win Senate seats have hammered Republican incumbents for their efforts to scrap the Affordable Care Act and its most popular provisions.

In doing so, Democrats are taking a page out of the playbook they used to flip the House in the 2018 midterm elections.

There should be zero doubt about this major Election talking Point. It effects every person in our Nation one way or another. When one third of the Nation has a precondition,or if certain limits are set,it effects us all.

Keep hammering on this point, Dems. Health care and the economy are the main issues right now, and they are intertwined.
