A possible glimmer in the gloom, another one


The republithugs control the white house, the supreme court and  both houses of congress, yet they cannot shed themselves of the hated Obamacare...

Why not?

Mostly because a LOT of angry people have come out in the press and at town meetings and the like and have vociferously denounced their efforts.  The House is dominated by the tea party mentality and they BARELY passed "trumpcare."  Senate support was never particularly strong and is now declining even further.  The likelihood of passage for a repeal and "replacement" bill is most doubtful  and finally, the GOP is seeing the apparent wisdom in reforming and repairing what is in place, rather than trying to do what they have tried to do for years - repeal Obamacare.  too many americans, many of them trump voters in very "red" states, have  abruptly figured out that while obamacare isn't good, it is the only decent game in town, right now.

Took them long enough.

I've been quite plain about this on Facebook
Seven children have signed up for Science adventures in Eaglemania (they finally issued me a contract today) for week after next, four girls and three boys.
