Republicans Are Abandoning their Obamacare-is-bad Gimmick

The Republican Boogieman called Obamacare is dying. The gimmick is up as millions if Americans are seeing the benefits of affordable health care.

Bloomberg is reporting that across the nation, Republicans’ anti-Obamacare lies broadcast on radio and television are being cut.

Republicans seeking to unseat the U.S. Senate incumbent in North Carolina have cut in half the portion of their top issue ads citing Obamacare, a sign that the party’s favorite attack against Democrats is losing its punch,” Bloomberg reports.

The shift — also taking place in competitive states such as Arkansas and Louisiana — shows Republicans are easing off their strategy of criticizing Democrats over the Affordable Care Act now that many Americans are benefiting from the law and the measure is unlikely to be repealed.

The party had been counting on anti-Obamacare sentiment to spur Republican turnout in its quest for a U.S. Senate majority, just as the issue did when Republicans took the House in 2010. Now, Republicans are seeking a new winning formula for an election less than three months away

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
