It can now go the Senate and die, just as it should. Moreover, the House will be home on recess when the CBO score comes in and they'll have to defend this abomination to their constituents.

Democrats sing, "Na na na na, hey hey hey, goodbye" to Repukes on the House floor.

In a sign of the challenges ahead for the legislation, nearly every major medical group, including the American Medical Association, American Hospital Association and the AARP, strongly opposed the Republican bill. Many said last-minute amendments further eroded protection for the most vulnerable groups, including the sick and elderly.

Though I was expecting them to lose the vote, this may simply be for temporary bragging rights during their recess. Wonder want kinds of questions await them this time from their constituents.

Their goal is to gut the foundation of Obamacare so when it fails it will look like Obamacare was terrible.
Taking away the mandate, restricting existing conditions.... Those are two important components.

Obsmacare had its problems, and some fixes would have given us a better system, but I hate to see it gutted for political reasons.
