What do you mean they both run on the same platform?

If America bankrupt republicans profit. In fact, I bet they hope and pray for this everynight. Its PARTY FIRST AMERICA LAST. No matter what was in the health care bill, even if God came down and told this is the solution to all America’s health care problems, Republicans would fight tooth and nail to prevent it from passing, they’d say its “socialist” just because they don’t want Obama and the democrats to succeed. They want America to fail so they can blame it on Obama.

The GOP, what can you say about these misguided fools. First they fought healthcare reform tooth and nail, and I think that most Americans can agree that there is a need for it, but that only the timing was wrong. But considering that its taken over a hundred years to finally get it passed, now is certainly the time to grab the opportunity.
Then, once passed they turn their attention to repealing it. Only to realize a little late that once passed, most Americans were going to be supportive of it.
Now, in yet another attempt to avoid doing anything positive for the American people, they are going to turn what little attention they can muster towards people’s concern towards jobs, and losing their homes.
Lets just see how productive they are with offering any reasurances to the American people with these two topics; don’t hold your breath!

Health-care reform will certainly discriminate against GOPers unless it includes strong coverage for mental-health issues. Even if the Republicans take over the Congress in the next election, which I do not see happening, it is very unlikely that they will repeal the health care reform bill. By then folks well see the benefits of reform and they will not like having any of it taken away.

The Republicans talk a lot about lowering taxes and reducing the size of government but when they are in power we get more taxes, more debt, more government and most certainly fewer liberties. The GOP has bet its future on courting the Tea Party and that is most definitely political suicide for them.
