    Sorry. FWIW.

    McCain is vastly more fit than the current draft dodging sack of in the oval office.

    people in usa that voted said otherwise

    McCain lost when he ran for president

    All you'd end up with is a bill 12 people supported. No need to put POTUS in there, he'll support whatever gets to his desk.

    I doubt he'd sign the bill McConnell was threatening to write with the Democrats to stabilize the insurance markets a couple of weeks ago.

    I Think This Is Going To Pass

    I’ve been walking around on the Senate side of the U.S. Capitol with the press corps. When a key member who seems undecided is walking to or leaving the Senate floor, 10 to 15 reporters swarm him or her and ask about the status of their vote.

    So I was standing near John McCain when he made a statement suggesting that Paul Ryan’s commitment to a conference if the Senate passes “skinny repeal” was “not sufficient.” Lindsey Graham was similarly noncommittal.

    I would not put much stock in these remarks. Senate Republican leaders seem fairly confident that the chamber will vote late Thursday or in early hours of Friday on this legislation. By emphasizing that there will be some kind of conference, Senate leaders have turned this vote into essentially another “motion to proceed,” even though it is in fact a policy bill that could have a huge impact if it becomes law. This has become, at least to the Republican senators, a vote to keep the Obamacare repeal process going. So I’m having a hard time seeing a bloc of members voting it down.

    It was obvious they were all going to vote for it in that stupid press conference. er was the only person who was going to stop this bill and he already bowed down to the Dear Leader.

    What’s In The Bill

    We have a “skinny repeal” bill.

    It’s just eight pages. It includes a provision that would prevent Medicaid funding from going to Planned Parenthood for a year, a provision the Senate parliamentarian has advised is outside the bounds of Senate rules. It would effectively end the individual mandate, as well as the employer mandate. It would extend the delay on the medical device tax to 2020 and increase limits on health savings accounts. It also would expand waivers that states could use to get around the regulations on insurance markets imposed by the ACA.

    The ? Is McConnell going to put this up for vote so that it can fail and he can wash his hands of the repeal while letting all his GOP colleagues vote for the repeal but not have to enact anything? Because it sounds like it needs 60 votes to pass. Or is McConnell changing the rules of the senate?

    The Cadillac Tax repeal has passed the Senate and will be part of the “skinny repeal” bill. That’s the ACA tax on high-cost employer-provided insurance. This repeal was sponsored by Nevada Sen. Dean er, in large part because the normally Democratic-leaning Culinary Workers Union in Nevada backed its repeal. Democratic Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada also voted for the measure. The fact that Nevada senators from both parties were united shows that state politics still play a role in how senators are voting on different possible provisions of the Republican health care bill.

    Democratic senators saw the text of this bill at the same time we did. About 10 p.m. Two hours before the vote.

    Sen. Chris Murphy, a Democrat from Connecticut, calls this process “an an embarrassment” and “nuclear-grade bonkers.”

    A Path To The President’s Desk For “Skinny Repeal”

    Ryan has apparently provided reassurance to skittish senators that he will definitely have the House go to conference rather than immediately pass “skinny repeal” — or what is now called the Health Care Freedom Act.

    There’s not much reason to doubt that Ryan will go to conference. While there are no legal assurances of this, to fail to do so would be extremely damaging to House-Senate relations. The GOP still has a lot of legislative business later this year for which it will need the House and Senate to cooperate.

    The question is what happens if that conference fails — which seems fairly likely given that the Senate has had so much trouble passing a more comprehensive bill. At that point, the House could still just pass the Health Care Freedom Act, and it would go to Trump’s desk. The extra items that Republicans added to the bill, such as the provision to defund Planned Parenthood, seem designed to help increase the likelihood of House approval.

    This thing has been declared "dead" like 500 times by liberal pundits, only to keep coming back. This is getting passed, if not now then some point between now and 2018. Just get it the over with.
