Once they pas the replacement for the ACA, they can't scream Obama-care anymore. They then own any shortcomings in the system. It's there baby. If premiums and deductibles continue to rise, people are receiving inadequate care or just lose coverage. A lot of them believe the rhetoric that being able to buy policies across state lines and tort reform are going to make a substantial difference. The experts and studies from OMB and others don't concur with that. It's going to be interesting.
