Senators begin with so and so told me this one during a vote-a-rama. it always begins the same way. but tonights vote-a-rama is about the serious thing the congress will try to do this year, repeal and replace obamacare. nothing than is fun. nothing about that is easy. the repealing part will take at least two different major pieces of legislation. and so will the replacement part. and no one know whats the replacement part, or more importantly when the replacement part will suddenly appear. no ...
