Poll question: ObamaCare: repealed during the March hostage event?
The next hostage situation is coming in March, when Congress will need to vote on raising the debt ceiling.

I'm pretty sure that Social Security will get cut. Now I'm thinking that the Rethugs will insist on deep changes in RomneyCare/ObamaCare as well.

I'm curious as to what fellow DUers think?

1. Ohio's new teabagger government calls for repeal of Federal health insurance law.
You tell me. It sounds like we are in for another two years of hashing this over with nothing but pain for the folks out here. We need a national movement to remove health care from elected officials. That is the only way we will see legislation that is fair to the public.

2. Worthless feel good stuff. Most are millionaires and all make enough to handle decent coverage.

5. It's the preexisting conditions that would make things difficult.
Premiums are steep but companies are flat out refusing and canceling coverage. Let the politicians deal with that for a while. A million dollars does not go far if you get seriously ill in this country.

4. Republican corporate donors do not want economy to collapse. So debt ceiling will be raised .
So Republicans are going to vote to raise the debt ceiling.

Sure there will be "rhetoric" and some will be allowed to cast a "symbolic" vote against it.

6. I'm sure that "their man" on the inside will make sure that the Republicans get
exactly what they are looking for.
