I don't know. Is "that" why they were elected? They were elected


for a lot of reasons. Most of them are elected for simply being from the right party in the right district. But let's say they were all elected on that one single issue - repeal and replace. If Trump became the bullhorn for that, it was all about replacing with something great, believe me, it is going to be great.

If these guys ran on the platform of repealing the giant douche of Ocare, promising to replace it with a shit sandwich, would they have been elected if that were the only reason people were voting? Protests erupted from all over Red Country during the last repeal effort, when individuals started coming to terms with how they'd be effected by this. Dems joke that repubs finally succeeded where they couldn't - they made Ocare popular.

Grassley is saying we promised to get rid of the giant douche, so it will be too embarrassing to go back and admit we couldn't (like Trump said, who knew this would be so hard?). In other words, I'd rather let the people who voted for me eat shit than have to feel embarrassed in front of them.

No, I don't think that's why anyone was elected.
