41. Case in point - Joe helped to convince McCain (a decent Republican) to "thumbs down" the repeal of

Obamacare.

This is the reason that we still have the ACA today - a vital piece of legislation that is saving lives. This is real stuff and Joe knows what he is talking about.

Did Joe Biden convince John McCain to save Obamacare?

That's the conclusion some are drawing after a report from the Washington Post stated Senator McCain was called by former Vice President Biden, who made an emotional plea to vote against the "skinny" repeal of Obamacare.

Biden purportedly reflected on the death of his son Beau Biden, who died of the same brain cancer McCain has been diagnosed with.

Former Senator Joe Lieberman also reportedly called McCain ahead of the vote. With the drama of a thumbs down gesture, McCain effectively killed the republicans' seven-year efforts to repeal and/or replace Obamacare, at least for now.
