- you probably should google for it -- nm - oblique Jun 23, 12:33

Heller: It's a "lie" that Senate health bill would lower premiums. "There isn't anything in this bill that would lower premiums," he says -- (link) - ty97 Jun 23, 12:23 14
- I have yet to see any of them explain how it will lower premiums other than by the fact that it offers way less coverage. - pmb Jun 23, 12:49
- It's being theorized he's being "allowed" to vote no because he's up for reelection in 2018 - Tim Jun 23, 12:33 5

    - I think Obama would be fine if they call it RepublicansAreAwesomeCare if they just left it alone -- nm - ty97 Jun 23, 12:29 1
      - They can't really just leave it alone. It needs some clean-up. But they could actually fix it and again be heroes (with bi-partisan support). -- nm - pmb Jun 23, 12:52
  - We need at least two more from the Heller camp. The other four who dislike it currently will vote for it. -- nm - ty97 Jun 23, 12:29 1
