Senator Claire McCaskill Says Democrats Made A “Mistake” Passing Obamacare

It’s re-election time! That’s right. This is the time where some vulnerable Democrats come clean on their huge mistakes. And since Democrats are super vulnerable in 2018, look for more mistakes being admitted.

First up: Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill is changing her entire tune on the passing of Obamacare.

Claire, it’s too late. That message has already been shared throughout the nation.

Sen. McCaskill was recorded on this audio mentioning how the bill was passed by Democrats only. Republicans wanted in on trying to make a positive change to the language and the Democrats had their “super majority” in the House and Senate and they felt they didn’t need the other side.

We made a mistake, the Democrats did,” McCaskill said in an audio recording published by the Republican National Committee (RNC). “Now we had hearings, which the Republicans didn’t. We had a bunch of hearings. We had Republican amendments added to the bill.”

But still, we made a mistake because when we took it to the floor for a vote we did it with just Democratic votes,” McCaskill concluded.

McCaskill who was elected to the Senate in 2006 voted for Obamacare, a vote that could haunt her as she is widely considered to be one of the most vulnerable Democrats up for reelection in 2018.

The Hill reported in May:

“About 25 counties in Missouri might have no insurers on the ObamaCare exchanges next year after Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas City (Blue KC) announced Wednesday it won’t participate.”

Democrats felt they didn’t need Republicans and they even chastised the GOP as not wanting to help Americans with health care. The problem here was obvious: Our side knew the bill was junk. Democrats even passed additional language allowing Obama to change his namesake health care legislation on the fly without congressional approval.

I do remember all of it and it angered a lot of grassroots American patriots. The Tea Party fought against this later and changed the face of the House and Senate so it wouldn’t happen again. McCaskill is too late in this audio and if she’s beat, it will be great a state punished their representative for cheating them.
