Democrats open to replacing Obamacare

[Proud Liberal Dem]

I can sort of understand why McCaskill, who's up for re-election in 2018 in a red state, might feel like she has to make some conciliatory statements (and if that's all they are, then, well, fine) but IMHO if Republicans decide they want to repeal ACA, THEY need to own whatever mess they make in the process and be made responsible for coming up with a viable replacement plan. I think that improvements need to be made to ACA but I think that they could be done- and the process be less messy- by focusing on the problems and not simply ripping everything up first and starting all over with McCain's "blank piece of paper". Besides, raise your hands here if ANYBODY here actually believes that the Republicans will actually include Democrats in the replacement plan or if they do, listen to anything we have to say about how to come up with a better plan? IMHO they just want political cover so that they can blame us for not "fixing" things when they go and mess everything up for a lot of people after repealing it. It's a trap!
