The Senate voted Wednesday afternoon against a proposal that would repeal major portions of Obamacare without a replacement legislation.
Senators voted 55-45 against the measure in a procedural vote Wednesday, which likely signals that a full, clean repeal that conservatives are pushing for could not pass the legislative body.
Seven Republicans voted against the measure, including: Sens. Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia, Susan Collins of Maine, Dean Heller of Nevada, John McCain of Arizona, Rob Portman of Ohio, Lamar Alexander of Tennessee and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska.
speechless……many of those RINO’s voted FOR the very same bill 2 years ago when Obama was Potus……there really is only one party and these same clueless tools wonder why Trump got elected…..
The Uni Party. They don’t want to repeal it. Or replace it.
So glad the wheeled McCain in so he could screw us one more time.
If it weren’t for the Mormons in NV, Heller would have never been elected. He’s a POS. He’s Nevada’s McCain.
Was Miss Lindsay a no-show?
They passed an identical bill while Obama was in office. We need to repeal and replace all these fuckers.
These “Magnificant 7” must be made to pay for this. Self serving cowards, a-holes.
UniParty. Follow the money.
2018 will be a RINO bloodbath.
“Was Miss Lindsay a no-show?”
He had a polish change and a bikini wax scheduled. Those nails don’t paint themselves, ya know.
LOL
I don’t know who the bitch in West VA is, but as for the rest of em, they’ve got a punch in the dicks waiting on them next election.
Earl does it again

notice how, except for Collins & Murkowski, the rest of the players changed from last nights vote to Repeal & Replace … yesterday it was Little Miss Linsey, today its John Boy … that way they think they can’t be blamed for too much obstruction
they think they’re playing the voters by rearranging the deck chairs …
Repugnicans are even worse than the DemonRats … I know the demonRats want to stab me up front … instead of my back
Rob Fucking Portman.
Trump just needs to keep pointing out these same republicans ran on repealing, they voted on repealing, and they need to be held responsible. Portman was one of the reasons I left the GOP and became an independent in 2013 when it was evident they didn’t want to defund this legislation and they were never going to repeal it. Now vote on congress having to deal with the same shitty plans the rest of us are entitled to buy.
McCONnell is batting 1000%.
Leader of the gutless RINOs in the Senate.
The usual assholes, who are in there to make sure not a goddamn thing gets accomplished, unless if fucks over middle class Americans.
All theses listed voted yes except Collins.
SHOCKER! Useless show vote. Was never going to happen.
We gave them what they wanted, The House, The Senate, and The Oval Office, and the caitiffs betrayed us.
The vote was orchestrated from the beginning.
Repeal will never happen, regardless of what the Voters want or what the candidates promised. The socialists will replace Obamacare with more government meddling and control.
The GOP RINOs have Ryan and McCONnell undermining President Trump and the American People.
The leading cow in the Senate is Mitch McConnell. He chews a lot of cud but is adementaly opposed to President Trump, and progress on any front. He sees his role as a cork in a bottle. Noting comes in, noting goes out.
I reckon C. Steven will explain it all.
Why did these seven hogs vote against their colleges and the President. Back in 2015 six of them voted for the same bill, which they knew Obama would veto. The fuckers are playing games with us.
Odin, I can’t wait.
Tar and feather the feckless assholes.
@Extirpates: dead right. McConnell is the problem. If he wanted to repeal Obamacare he could do it. That is his job. I hate him more than the dems.
If they think waiting out Obamacare, letting it fail on its own and going back to the way thinks were is a winning strategy, they need to think again. Obamacare, like everything else that didn’t work during the Obama years, is Too Big To Fail, and it won’t be allowed to fail while Republicans are in power. That would put Republicans in charge of its replacement once it fails.
Barney Frank and Co. artificially delayed the subprime mortgage crisis for years until just before the 2008 election, to use it as leverage against George W Bush in particular and Republicans in general, helping Obama win. Without repealing AND replacing Obamacare, Democrats will delay Obamacare’s collapse until they can win back Congress, the Senate and the White House. Then they will replace it with single payer.
