Few regard Obamacare as perfect, but many emphasize that when Republicans next consider a health-care makeover, it's critical they listen to those throughout the state and country — including countless fellow Republicans — who would not be able to afford coverage without it.

At a diner in Booneville, northwest of Whitesburg, Republican voter Robert Goe urged lawmakers to set aside politics when it comes to health care.

"It doesn't matter, in my opinion, if you're a Democrat, Republican (or) Independent," he said. "We all need health care. We all need coverage."

"I thank Obama for (Obamacare)," he added. "I'm a Republican and I'm saying that."
