I honestly feel like shooting myself.

Not because I want this to pass, I just can't go through another negative press day for my party and my ideology. I cannot do it.

I love politics and I the last 6 months have been absolute hell for me.
So you care more about bad press than the 16 million people who will lose their insurance?

I will name my firstborn "Senator Lisa Murkowski" if she holds out and votes no.

So long as Trump is in the White House, it won't get any better.

I want to believe this will fail, but this bill has risen from the dead so many times that I just have no confidence that it will fail. McCain, please prove me wrong. Heller, please prove me wrong. Capito, please prove me wrong. Murkowski, please prove me wrong. Collins, please prove me wrong. God, please prove me wrong.

Which is why the senate and house needs to make up for the WH BS and they are failing at that.

McCain had a chance to be a hero and blew it. Now we're stuck with Osamacare.

It's kinda funny but this whole debacle has been a win-win for the dems hopes going into 2018. Either this fails and they have nothing to run on to the base or they pass it and piss off indies and swing voters with an awful policy

Hey, dude, seriously if you feel that way, please call the national suicide hotline, okay? I may not agree with you politically, but please take care of yourself.

Please, God, please, let skinny repeal fail. McCain, Murkowski, Collins, Heller, please have some sense. Please do not allow this bill, which will kill 16 million people, to pass.

I know it sounds ridiculous but politics is big for me. I truly wanted to see some decent conservative policy implementation and now it looks like nothing will get done before the dems take the house, and that makes trump a lameduck for 2 years until he loses reelection.
