What Truly Sucks...

Is hoping that Republican Senators do the right thing. We know McCain isn't. The right thing for him to do is stay home and rest.

What we have left is to hope that those Republican Senators who've already spoken out against the repeal of the ACA will stick to their guns and not cave to the pressure or being bought out.

And I guarantee that pressure is immense and Mitch is doing everything he can to buy them out.

As someone who depends on the ACA, I'll hold onto my hope. It's all I have at this point.

I've called so often I think they might start to recognize my voice soon. McCain is first on my list tomorrow. I will call Johnson (WI) again too. I called 16 today but forgot to call McCain...I am soooo stupid!
Once a GOP ass, always a GOP ass I guess (cancer or no cancer).
