3 Republicans and 48 Democrats let the American people down. As I said from the beginning, let ObamaCare implode, then deal. Watch!

Capping his dramatic return to Capitol Hill while fighting brain cancer, Sen. John McCain cast the deciding vote to sink his fellow Republicans’ so-called “skinny repeal” of the Affordable Care Act.
McCain, R-Ariz., joined Republican Sens. Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and every Senate Democrat to bring down the bill on a 49-51 vote.
McCain had returned to the Senate on Tuesday for the health-care debate while recovering from July 14 surgery to remove a blood clot. He had just disclosed that clot was associated with an aggressive form of brain cancer, and he is expected to return to Arizona soon for chemotherapy and radiation treatments.
McCain drew cheers from supporters of the Affordable Care Act earlier in the week with a floor speech in which he urged a return to Senate bipartisanship and compromise, but jeers from many of the same people when he subsequently voted to proceed to debate on the legislation, which critics on the left called “Trumpcare” after President Donald Trump.
Shut down donations to GOP pols. All of them. McCain took the fall, but it would have been someone else if needed.
Yep.
Mid terms, elections have consequences remember?

BUT, IF YOU DON’T GIVE REPUBLICANS MONEY (until Collins, McCain, and Murkowski are out of office — OUT, not merely leaving) THE DEMOCRATS WILL WIN!!!!!! THAT WIL CHANGE EVERYTHING!!!!!!

Time for POTUS to go full Trump-Tzu. Investigate Juan McCain for his role in providing Comey with the piss-dossier from Fusion GPS, (which was bought and paid for by the Russkies, as per Senate Judiciary Committee testimony yesterday).
Again, it will NOT implode while Republicans are in power to provide the replacement. Democrats and RINOs will find ways to repeatedly shock it back to life until the Democrats regain control, when they can let it implode and replace it with single payer.
Rhino till last breath
I will not spend my money in AZ,, ME, or AK. I cancelled my vacation to Bar Harbor,ME earlier this week. I will take my money to a true red state and support voters that know how to vote.
Waiting on C.Steven to tell me to remain hopeful.
Waiting for President Trump’s Executive Order to put all of Senate and Congress on ObamaCare. Call it the “Go F Yourself McCain Order”!
Fry tweet his soggy RINO ass PRESIDENT Trump!
I wish that parachute hadn’t opened.
Ya know, it almost seems, with that goofy ‘Roman thumb down’ vote on the ‘well’ of the Senate, that this guy just might have something wrong with his brain, no?!?
Retired Navy Captain – He has Tricare for Life and Medicare. Doesn’t matter if Congress were forced to be under Obamacare … he would still be covered.
Fortunately, I haven’t been forced under Obamacare as a retired USAF officer – Tricare for Life and Medicare, so far, are exempt from the nightmare of Obamacare.
Jacked weasel.

Arizona voters can KISS MY ENTIRE FAT ASS!
His head is full of mush. Literally.
