plan. >> question is is that plan just too far fetched to be a reality? here to weigh ip, judge andrew napolitano. is it legal and can it be done? >> if he becomes president and congress agrees with him, obamacare will be repealed. and what will replace it or what will the affect of it be? remember, only nine million people out of 330 million americans have signed up for obamacare on an exchange. that's the number of people who didn't have health insurance five years ago who now have it. if you abolish obamacare, you're not going to affect the other 221 million americans. you're going to affect the nine million. what will become of them? senator cruz proposes a free market solution where you could buy insurance overinterstate lines. you could taylor insurance for your own needs. for example, i'm a single male living in new jersey, why do i need pregnancy protection? the state of new jersey says one

stunning bad faith of the plaintiffs. at it's center is the question. what if conservative opponents of obama care finally win. will it be like the perverbial dog that caught the car. nine million people would lose their subsidies. the robert wood foundation thought that two million of them would be unensured. assuming the plaintiffs win, in every state that doesn't have it's own exchange can start campaigning to set one up. give people their health insurance, subsidies, and premiums. and instantly democrats will be handed a huge political weapon. so what is the republican plan if that happens? someone that helped craft the law will join me next.
