Sorry for lack of elequance. I'm on a bus typing into my phone.
As far as I can tell, not one Dem in Congress (not even Manchin) voted to repeal the ACA because you made it loud and that you were watching and there would be no free pass on this one no matter how purple their states or districts are. And that was just as important as flipping any Republican.

(28,394 posts)2. I am so proud of Bob Casey (PA).
He tweeted all kinds of analysis and details about the effects of taking away ACA and Medicaid. He was at it for weeks and his tweets were always informative and based in facts. He was PA's Auditor General, so the man knows his numbers!
Thank you @SenBobCasey !!!
