Republican/GOP Running For/On OmamaCare West Virginia

Back in January, she had kind words for the law's Medicaid expansion, which could cover as many as 116,000 low-income West Virginia residents in the next decade after the state accepted it.

"Coverage is great and having more people covered is excellent," she said.
Capito then told the Wall Street Journal last week that repealing Obamacare is unlikely and she'll instead work to make it "less painful and more manageable."

So what affords Capito the leeway to espouse conservative heresy as she tries to turn a blue Senate seat red, especially when House GOP leaders are quickly chastened by the base if they say the same thing?

TPM talked to West Virginia political strategists who said the explanation is complicated. But the essence of it is this: Capito doesn't need Obamacare, and the law has helped a lot of people in her state. Why rail against that new reality when she can instead focus on other issues?

Repblicans saying they are for Obamacare Expansion means they are most likely lying, Votes and Winning is all they care about but Democrats should stop believing the 24/7 media bashing ObamaCare and run on Obamacare with “Exuberance”. 80% of the Presidents negitive rating is from the Media, not based on facts, get out the Democratic/Presidents positives in the last 5 years and screw the Media!

1. I have thought for some time as soon as the ACA is up, running and helping people to get health

insurance the Obamacare name will die immediate death.

2. If the GOP guy is just running on Democratic Party ideas the voters might as well

pick the actual Democratic candidate. Why even consider the Republican? (RINO)

3. I agree. The Democrats should stake their flag in the ground and stand by it proudly.

I'm sick of the wimpy, almost embarrassed, habits and actions of Democrats. By their lame silence and inaction, they imply agreement that liberalism is some how a bad word in America.

Dems should stand up and be proud liberals!

It was liberals who championed a break from England and monarchal rule.

It was liberals who championed the ending of slavery.

It was liberals who championed unionization, the 5 day work week, and vacation time.

It was liberals who championed civil rights.

It is liberals, now, who champion health insurance and medical assistance for all.

What's not to be loud and proud about?
