Well polls on the health care bill are split on repeal, this is about 73-15.
Putting that aside, fact is we have time to debate the bill and pass it now. Lets stop the silly games of delay tactics (which is what Demint was trying to do since he likely realizes the numbers aren't in his favor) and get to work.
Polls are not split on Obamacare, the majority of American's are against it.
No, controversial issues that are not critical should be delayed, as has been tradition.

Polls on whether or not it should be repealed is split. The exit polls (which consisted of the stronger GOP turnout that led to the GOP gains) was 46-47% on repeal.
I can understand the labeling of the Dream Act as controversial, but the Start Treaty certainly isn't controversial.
Some people need to stop sippin' the moonshine. The right showed their true colors in refusing the 250k and the one million dollar tax extension compromise. The right only care about the top .5% and will do anything to keep them paid. The tax breaks was a massive failure and the #2 reason for the economic collapse next to the wars. There is absoutly no reason to keep funding a failed policy, with even more pork for the right to the tune of 900 billion dollars. If you support massive spending, keep supporting the right.
You think that the economic collapse was caused primarily because of the wars?
Don't be silly. The make up of Congress will change next year because the American people are unhappy with the way things are going. The merry band of morons currently in Congress are not the folks the American people have any faith in. They ought to recognize that fact and not break anything before the adults take their seats in January.
Therefore the Republicans just want to vacation on our tax $$$?
You need to Wake up and stop drinking your stupid kool aide!
The ONLY reason dirty harry wants to stay is to make sure his PORK FILLED requests get passed. Please take off your rose tinted glasses and join the real world and stop thinking thugs like Reid are working for you. Please!
Reid is not, and will never, try to actually take money from the 'rich' and give it to you like he, and other demoRATS, keep telling you they will. Reality is coming soon....wake up, get a JOB and stop blaming the Republicans for all your problems.
Save it the wittle sheeple been drinking way too much spiked kool-aid. They will never get Reid and his merry band of Thieves! They will not take off their rose tinted glasses, nor will they come out of their glass Houses. Reality needs to kick some in the butt in both parties, the way i see it lately, neither party gives a damn, and you won't convince me otherwise, economy still in the dump, job losses still happening, people still losing their homes, and the twirps on both sides, play games with our Future.
Scuttling his 1.1 trillion dollar omnibill (which is just code for "we're making a huge bill full of giveaways that has no chance of passing so we can claim in 2012 that we tried to give you, the voters, all sorts of free stuff!") is simple: Just find the junior most Senator, and force him to come in over the holidays. All he has to do is stand up and say "I filibuster", and that's the end of it.
The Senate was in session last year until Christmas Eve......
Oh shucks, I forgot they were working on scamming the American people by working on the unlawful HC bill.
Thanks for reminding us that he was working like most Americans on Christmas Eve and what they were working on.
