Until the Democrats work to fix the mess they alone created, they'll lose.
Obamacare is not perfect, but if you talk to people who have it, they say it's better than nothing. McCain voted no because he wants both parties to work together on this because no one party can fix it. But this is all on republicans now. They ran on repealing and lost.
The number of uninsured has gone down since the ACA became law. Pre-existing conditions no longer became an impediment to getting insurance. Those two things are worth the price of admission.

Pre-existing conditions were a good thing to address. It's too bad the cost side was not addressed. It doesn't do a lot of good to be able to purchase something you can not afford.
McCain explicitly ran his last campaign on repeal and replace.
Then he does this. He lied to his constituents.
He's an unprincipled, self serving hack and is totally worthless as a legislator.
I agree.......take Trump out of the equation, he has been President for 6 months......Mccain has been in the senate for decades and he ran on repeal and replace Obamacare. His state of Arizona got hit the worst under Obamacare where their premiums went up 3 times and he pulls this stunt.
If he doesn't like the plan then where is his plan? but again he sided with the Democrats and screw his state.
Healthcare has become an entitlement..and people don't like it when the Govt. takes away their free stuff.
Perhaps we should bow to reality and make some form of UHC work?
You want to make abortion illegal even when poor women can't afford to have kids. But yet you don't want them to have healthcare because you think it's an entitlement. What exactly do you want because it's sending mixed messages.
