2016 GOP Presidential Hopefuls: Now It's Up To Us To Repeal Obamacare
Source: HUFFPOST
WASHINGTON -- Republican presidential hopefuls on Thursday denounced a Supreme Court decision that upheld subsidies provided by the Affordable Care Act. The decision neutralizes what was likely the last serious effort to cripple the law through the courts and represents a major victory for President Barack Obama.
A decision against the health care law would have put the Republicans eyeing the presidency in a bind by forcing them to spell out what they proposed to do for millions of Americans without crucial subsidies. Now, however, they can continue to rail against the law rhetorically, promising to deal with the matter once they are in the White House. The fate of the law now depends on whether one of the following Republicans makes it there:
Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.)
I disagree with the Courts ruling and believe they have once again erred in trying to correct the mistakes made by President Obama and Congress in forcing Obamacare on the American people."
Despite the Courts decision, ObamaCare is still a bad law that is having a negative impact on our country and on millions of Americans. I remain committed to repealing this bad law and replacing it with my consumer-centered plan that puts patients and families back in control of their health care decisions. We need Consumer Care, not ObamaCare.

(4,450 posts)I hope they run on it every day. People by and large have come to accept Obamacare and even (gasp) LIKE the fact that it gives them access to health insurance. So by all means Republicans, run on an anti-Obamacare platform.

(43,576 posts)to run against Obamacare, the GOP House too, they need to vote
to repeal it another 50 times so everyone knows where they stand.
I hope they make it their primary issue, and they might, because
what else do they have?
Oh right, they have vote suppression, that's their other big thing.
So they can tell America
"You have no right to vote and no right to health care!"
