(71,465 posts)He got a 100 likes on the post that was deleted. It wasn't just red state Dems...either. The left left was furious over not getting single payer. The red state Dems knew they would lose and yet they still voted for it...you might not agree with them on some policy but in the end they came through. The ACA has save thousands and thousands of lives. Perriello who ran in a primary for governor has talked about how Nancy said that many would lose their seats but it was the right thing to do. I have so much respect for that Congress and for Nancy Pelosi. Without her there would be no healthcare. Perriello is a good guy although he has held pro-life views...but he worked his ass off to elect Northam after the primary. Hope he runs for a congressional seat.
I was going to post some more of this Obama bashing shit but it is too depressing...it is there if you want to look at it...Fact is Obama was abandoned in 10 and for six years we played on the GOP turf. We held the presidency for eight years. Imagine what could have been accomplished if voters had turned out. In 14 the voters stayed home ...very low approval ratings and we go Gorsuch.
