EPIC FAIL as TV ad thanks Rep David Valadao (R-CA) for keeping his promise, replacing Obamacare

WATCH: Republicans lost big on healthcare — but forgot to cancel TV ads celebrating Obamacare repeal



http://www.rawstory.com/2017/03/watch-republicans-lost-big-on-healthcare-but-forgot-to-cancel-tv-ads-celebrating-obamacare-repeal/

Pre-bought ads produced by the conservative American Action Network PAC aired which praised Republicans for repealing Obamacare were displayed on local TV stations during Friday night games in what can be described as the worse case of premature adjaculation ever. They bought the ads in advance, meaning, they were so sure Obamacare would be replaced. Foiled AGAIN!

The repeal never happened, though.

"Republicans are keeping their promise with a new plan for better health care," a voice-over says in the ad, which displays pictures of smiling doctors and patients as upbeat rock music booms in the background, the Daily News reports.

The ads urged constituents to thank their Republican congressmen and women for "keeping" their promises and "replacing the Affordable Care Act with the better health care you deserve."
