    Republicans will own this forever. For 8 years they disguised their racist hate of Obama as hate of Obamacare. Then, with Obama out of office, they backed themselves into a a peculiar corner.https://twitter.com/NickKristof/status/928238828401451009 …

    GOP should worry: In Virginia exit polls, top issue for voters was health care--and 78% of those voters who cited health voted Democratic.

        So @ShaunKing, GOP voters only "hated" the ACA IF it was called "Obamacare." They loved what the ACA was meant to do and wanted more.

        No doubt racism manifested in the vilification of Obamacare, but GOP donors have deep interests in maintaining the world's most expensive healthcare system.

        The attempts to erase Obama and his legacy from history is failing for the GOP. Yesterday’s elections, and the ones coming, should be a tremendous wake up call for them. Americans are voting for what’s best for our country (equality, healthcare, fair wages, etc.)

        Medicare expansion is not sustainable by the states under Obamacare...Federal funding lessens and then eliminates over a small window of time, and then become the sole responsibility of the states electing expansion....do you see everything through the prism of race?

        When a political party prioritizes taking healthcare away from millions of people, that's a crappy agenda.

        That top issue is about to become more important once seniors and people who have to purchase their own health insurance realize that the Republican tax plan eliminates medical deductions on federal income tax.
