What ever it was, it got all but three Republican senators to vote for it. Best vote yet, a couple of previous bills lost by more. One of 'em, Susan Collins of Maine is a long time RINO flake, Another, Murkowski from Alaska I don't know much about, but the third, and decisive vote that killed it, came from John McCain. Surprise to me. I never did hear just what McCain disliked about the bill, but I have a lot of respect for McCain built up over many years. If he objected to the bill, there might have been something wrong with it. I wonder what it was.
Another odd thing. Someone put out the word that it was OK to vote the skinny bill thru because the House promised to kill it later. What was that about?
As it is now, we voters are highly disappointed that despite a Republican House, Senate, and presidency we are still stuck with economy killing Obamacare. We need to do something about that in 2018. Maybe we can primary some RINO's. I fear that a lot of unhappy Trump voters will vote for Democrats for Congress. Republicans may well loose one or both houses of Congress. The Stupid Party rides again.
