15. But they didn't stick
There was the odd freak at a meeting that'd holler "no government run healthcare, and keep your hands off my medicare". However, most seniors felt fairly secure in the outcome. Especially those in the district in question. The only two things they were claiming to do was to reduce waste and phase out a particular medicare program that was marginally popular in Florida. The GOP tried to paint this as some sort of "medicare rip off" but these folks know medicare and they knew it was nothing of the sort. And they also knew all about the "donut hole" that was getting closed.
