...and if they don't forget about using this as a weapon of mass destruction against democrats in November they could kiss their already fading chances of winning the Senate goodbye...

o you have Republicans running around all four states screaming about Obamacare repeal, yet two-thirds of the voters favor government involvement in health care, or the Democratic position. THAT'S the corner they've painted themselves into. THAT'S what's going to ultimately kill them this year. And all of that despite the $100+ million the Kochs have spent over the past several years undermining the law.
I've consistently argued that the Affordable Care Act will be a net positive for Democrats this year, and certainly Republicans are already flailing around looking for a Plan B. But numbers like this point to even bigger problems for Republicans than I ever dreamed. It's not just that they're trying to take away insurance from hundreds of thousands of their constituents. It's they're utterly and completely out of sync with the voters.
And if these Southern conservative states feel this way, what hope do Republicans have?

The latest polls have Democrats re-surging in southern (of all places) states. gaining momentum on their hopes to hold the Senate and keep the 9% approval-rating House of Representatives from giving more of this country to the Koch brothers and other rich donors...
