Since Republicans want this election to hinge on the Affordable Health Care Act (ObamaCare), today's House vote on repeal tees up the ball and forced everybody on the record again.
NNY Congressman Bill Owens voted against repeal, saying the current plan may need change but provides the blueprint for a better system.
On cue, opponent Matt Doheny said ObamaCare is hiking premiums, costing jobs and forcing working families to lose insurance.
If you are weary of the verbal volleys, better buck up because it will be non stop to November.
The issue is polling at 50-50, so its not clear how many minds will be changed. Like most elections, this is about getting your peeps out. To that end, telephone voter ID surveys will allow the candidates to identify those pro or con on this issue, and they can then work on turnout.

Total horseshit 33 effin votes wasting over 50 million dollars of salary and effort ove rthe past two weeks with this crap . Congress and especially the House is a total bunch of incompetent losers who are spending this in a wasted effort . It is law deal with it jerks ! We are in the middle of a damn depression and thes who's efools are fiddling around with useless symbolism . cantor and Boehner sshould be censured or impeached for this outrageous waste of 50 million
7:49 $50 million dollars is less than the Obumba administraton spends on ADVERTISING the ObamaCare law to the stupid masses. $50 million dollars is less than Pelosi spend on skin stretch creame. Considering the government spends $8billion dollars a week, what the hell are you so knotty about 7:49? Lay off the bath salts. And no, we're not in a depression. Our First Semi Black President tells us we are in a great recovery. All is well.
tick tock and all that..
It has yet to be seen if we are in the middle of a recession. If Mitt wins the recession ends in November if he loses November is the middle of it.
The GOP promised in 2010: give us the house and we'll create jobs and solve this economic mess.
1. Record number of votes on women's health care and not jobs.
2. Record vote on repealing health care (31 different votes).
3. Efforts to stymie student loan reform, mimimum wage, unemployment help, aid for first responders, and a laundry list of things that have nothing to do with "creating jobs."
They are despicable, really. People should be ashamed of voting GOP.
And if elected Doheny will have his own version of health care supplied by the taxpayers.....
That's a good one, Mr Partisan Francis. Dem Pres for four years, Senate Dem for four years, House evenly split with two years each. Yup, I'll play along. I'd blame our current situation on the Elephants too. We depend on you, Dannie, for daily foolishness. If only Obama delivered as consistantly as you do.
Oh, and Pelosi promised the most open administration ever too. That atty gen of yours is quite a guy. And Nancie herself set new standards for openness during the healthcare debate. Such BS you be.
There you go again Dan, confusing the right wing nuts on here again with simple facts... expect the usual worn-out ad homonym attacks.
If Doheny does have his own version of health care, I hope it has tort reform and the ability to purchase policies over state lines. Those were two things missing from ObamaCare. Due perhaps in part because the lawyers are the biggest contributer to Dannie's party. Ah maybe not. Probably just a coincidence.
Dannie, you should be ashamed of your partisan dishonesty.
Health Care is a Control Mechanism of the NWO. It does have the device registry in it with triage control of your funds,what benefits you recieve,A cap on spending, Loss of Parental Rights,And everyone will be under the same exact disciplines.
Its not about Health Care its about Control and the NWO.
I have studied the Healthcare for 2 years and I think everyone needs to Open the Document and read it like nancy pelosi says- We have to look past the Smoke screens and if you want to find out whats in the Healthcare you must pass it then find out whats in it...
You people are all running to the Slaughterhouse like sheep..
Google Device registry healthcare, Triage healthcare,Control Healthcare..
Research and Realize the TRUTH.
WAKE UP PEOPLE...
Danny this is what a congress is supposed to do...vote on things. If you were not an idiot you would have a problem with the Senate that won't vote on things...such as this bill. they won't even vote on their own presidents budget. The senators deserve the opportunity to give the the grandmothers you hate, back their half a trillion dollars you and Owens stole from their medicaid.
Bob, does Obamacare cover mental health issues? If not maybe you and Danny could get a two for one deal.
OMG : Bobby get help soooon
Bill Owens had his chance. Imagine had he voted for the repeal. He may have been unstoppable. Now, he may have just handed the election to Doheny.
I love this crap: I'm a partisan, but an honest one. Somehow I state facts in a logical and rational way and I get blasted for not being in lock-step with my "party" hahahahaha - what a laugh.
A couple of you Anon whackjob posters blind with your hatred should take that show on the road you might earn lunch money if nothing else.
Funny how so many "non-partisan" GOPers here falsely assume and always mostly falsely project that their "opinions" and personal attacks on me and about me and a few others here somehow trump the facts presented. Why is that: oh yeah, their brand of being "fair and balanced and a non-partisan," right?
Most of the Anon posts above and who drink at this trough underscore my assessment.
Scurry on now: the funny farm just reopened - there is plenty of room.
The GOP Health Care plan in two simple steps:
1. Repeal ACA.
2. _______
LMAO-
Typical answer from the Sheep.
EXPLAIN THIS..
The Obama Health care bill under Class II (Paragraph 1, Section B) specifically includes ‘‘(ii) a class II device that is implantable." Then on page 1004 it describes what the term "data" means in paragraph 1, section B:
14 ‘‘(B) In this paragraph, the term ‘data’ refers to in15
formation respecting a device described in paragraph (1),
16 including claims data, patient survey data, standardized
17 analytic files that allow for the pooling and analysis of
18 data from disparate data environments, electronic health
19 records, and any other data deemed appropriate by the
20 Secretary"
What exactly is a class II device that is implantable? Lets see...
Approved by the FDA, a class II implantable device is a "implantable radiofrequency
transponder system for patient identification and health information." The purpose of a class II device is to collect data in medical patients such as "claims data, patient survey data, standardized analytic files that allow for the pooling and analysis of data from disparate data environments, electronic health records, and any other data deemed appropriate by the Secretary."
Then go to the sites for the device registry-
lol
Shure you people know what your talking about to yourselfs..
http://nationalmedicaldeviceregistry.org/
or this one ,
http://medicaldeviceregistry.org/
then please explain why they are ready to inject everyone with a electronic device that has the underlying barcode in it ...
Or maybe go alittle deeper and understand all the biblical verses on the 666 number of the beast.
Your all gonna be Slaves to their cause of the Luciferians.
http://starseedbobs.blogspot.com/2012/06/bible-and-microchip-impant.html
Disprove the links and why they mandate the device registry in it..
LMAO ...
hahaha I laugh everyday when another figures out the truth.
Yes, you're an honest guy Dannie. You stated that "all Republicans are racists." Were you lying then or just running your partisan mouth? You claiming honesty. Puke.
The alternative Republican health care plan in two simple steps:
1. Don't get sick,
2. If you do get sick, die quickly
Got it 8:42pm, it's only wasteful spending when it's the Democrats and our “First Semi Black President” spending the money.
It's smart, necessary spending when the Republicans spend (waste) it. That's the difference.
And lest we forget, former VP Dick Cheney is on the record as stating deficits don't matter -- so I guess they only matter when Republicans aren't in control.
“tick tock and all that..”
