Should Obamacare be repealed because it's a step in the wrong direction?

54. Repealing it would be playing into the GOP's hands.

They piously intone about how the the ACA was passed without their votes (Yeah, because the GOP SOP and/or default is to object to anything from the administration) and that we need to start over. Excuse me, but if the Republicans didn't rush to improve access to health care when they had control of the Congress, the Supreme Court, and the White House, and indeed Mitch McConnell's office went after SCHIP users (Google Paul Krugman's "The Sliming of Graeme Frost&quot , and the fact that people were bankrupted by medical bills even when they had insurance, I'm not going to hold my breath waiting for the glorious solution. We've seen the Ryan budget plan. We've seen Republican governors resist expanding Medicaid. Until the GOP as a whole can prove it's anything other than virulently opposed to ordinary people, they can go boil their heads.
