Dem ad accuses Heller of 'lying' about record on pre-existing conditions

A new Democratic ad is accusing Sen. Dean Heller (R-Nev.) of “lying” about helping people with pre-existing conditions.

The ad from Rep. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.), who is seeking to unseat Heller in a close Senate race, features people with pre-existing conditions, one of whom says, “Dean Heller is lying about helping us.”

The ad shows a clip of Heller at a press conference last year promising he would not support legislation that would take away health insurance from “hundreds of thousands of Nevadans.”

It adds that Heller “broke his promise” when he voted "yes" on a procedural vote to take up consideration of the Republican repeal and replacement plan, and when he voted yes on the “skinny repeal,” which would have repealed ObamaCare’s mandate to have coverage.

who I was calling as a "maybe" when I was calling the senators to stop the overturn of the ACA. He conned everyone for a short while, a very short while. I do NOT forget...I have two preexisting conditions and need the ACA so this really matters to me and millions of others.

Dems need to run on affordable healthcare! That single issue will help them get more votes than any other. Voters in both parties and independents all want the ACA and they want to improve it, not destroy it. Half of the idiots in the US didn't even know Obamacare and the ACA were the SAME thing since they listen to Fux Ruse like blind sheep. When they finally woke up and thought for themselves they realized it is a good thing to have! They soon learned that being pregnant is a preexisting condition and so is asthma. Gee, may be affordable health care is a good thing...DUH!
