Toomey "disappointed" in Senate ACA repeal failure

[DeminPennswoods]

Yes, our jr senator is disappointed he was unable to take healthcare away from millions of Americans and thousands of Pennsylvanians.

Pat's not up for reelection for 5 years, but we Pennsylvanians have long memories.

1. Some Pennsylvanians have long memories!

The fact he was re-elected is a good indication that not all Pennsylvanians have long memories!!!

4. He won by a very slim margin

IMO McGinty was a weak candidate with some baggage she couldn't overcome. Unfortunately we are stuck with Pat the Rat for 5.5 years. Hoping then we can *resoundingly* show him the door like we did to Frothy Rick in 2006.

2. Agree! His repeal would have devastated the Commonwealth.

He would have sold the lives of the weakest members of his own state for the Club for Growth. He is a multi millionaire with ice water in his veins.

I will never understand the GOP politicians, they are so at odds with the concept of representing their own state and being a "professional politician" in a good way. Toomey is a perfect example of a man who would destroy his own constituency for ideological dreams. He is really Paul Ryan's Ayn Randian brother.

We can't count on him to serve the public of his state. Thank God for Bob Casey, a true public servant.

3. Yes, new Pa. Dem. Resident

Get almost daily emails from Senator Casey He is definitely "on the ball" with his constituents.

5. Sen. Casey is awesome

Would like to see him run for POTUS or be a running mate someday.

6. Toomey listened to his corporate masters, the Koch Brothers.

The part that is astounding to me is the thousands upon thousands of Pennsylvanians who would've lost their healthcare AND their jobs, and he didn't care! UPMC is the biggest employer in western PA.

Pat Toomey doesn't care about Pennsylvanians' lives OR their jobs. He makes me sick.
