Many Republicans Vow To Continue To End The ACA And Replace It Or NOT.

The more radical wing of the GOP as we know want to get rid of the ACA and everything else. They just do not believe government should do anything for the people. As we know they will continue their efforts to destroy the progress of the last 100 years.

So we will have to continue to be vigilant and active. Like a crocodile they lie in wait until they can strike without warning.

I fail to understand all the cheering going on as though we won something. The fight hasn't even begun, and it makes 2018 even MORE critical

If we don't at least take back the house, then because the voters, whether they come out to vote or not, will have just destroyed it

But I'll still take satisfaction in this small victory. This was a bad day for Republicans and a good day for Dems, and it's been a while since I could say that.

The defeat of the draconian things in the bill are the real victory.

They will continue to try to completely repeal the ACA. Plus, the tax plan coming up is going to be derailed because of the anticipation that the Chumpcare bill would transfer almost a Trillion (T!) to the wealthy.

This is a victory...not the best, but still not as bad as it could have gone.

Be assured there will be problems ahead as they are soul-less and will be out for revenge.
