It's already beginning. The pullback from repealing Obamacare. Like roaches fleeing from the light the gop is already scattering and rethinking their strategy in their efforts to make sure they get re-elected. All talk, no action. That's today's gop.

As I've said before, Obamacare is here to stay. The only hope of ridding ourselves of it is through nullification at the state level. The gop is useless and the courts will rule in favour of the government.

Read the rest at the source.WASHINGTON -- Top Republicans are increasingly worried that GOP candidates this fall might be burned by a fire that's roaring through the conservative base: demand for the repeal of President Barack Obama's new health care law.
It's fine to criticize the health law and the way Democrats pushed it through Congress without a single GOP vote, these party leaders say. But focusing on its outright repeal carries two big risks.
Repeal is politically and legally unlikely, and grass-roots activists may feel disillusioned by a failed crusade. More important, say strategists from both parties, a fiercely repeal-the-bill stance might prove far less popular in a general election than in a conservative-dominated GOP primary, especially in states such as Illinois and California.
Democrats are counting on that scenario. They say more Americans will learn of the new law's benefits over time and anger over its messy legislative pedigree will fade. For months, Democrats have eagerly catalogued Republican congressional candidates who pledge to repeal the health care law, vowing to make them pay in November.
Republican leaders are stepping cautiously, wary of angering staunchly conservative voters bent on repealing the new law. In recent public comments, they have quietly played down the notion of repealing the law while emphasizing claims that it will hurt jobs, the economy and the deficit.
As I've said before, Obamacare is here to stay. The only hope of ridding ourselves of it is through nullification at the state level. The gop is useless and the courts will rule in favour of the government.
