Yes, brilliant strategy to campaign against a senator who voted for repeal to get that ONE VOTE. This is the kind of savvy that informs your opinions.
You'll be railing against the tyranny of progressivism in no time, don't worry. With your goldfish political attention span, Republicans have always had control of government and always will. The unfortunate reality for you, though, is that once big "progressive" programs like Obamacare actually start to help people, they become quite popular. In the past few years, as all of Obamacare has been implemented, public opinion has turned sharply in favor of universal health care.
You know that "one vote" you keep insisting means "Buh bye" to Obamacare? The bill that they came one vote short on wasn't even close to a full repeal of Obamacare, and it wasn't a bill even most Republicans wanted to enact. They just wanted to pass a bill so they could move to committee with the House, so they could work out a real bill that wouldn't be political suicide. Full repeal is a pipe dream, even if Republicans got another vote. The most they'll do is remove the individual mandate and repeal some taxes on top earners--assuming they can even get the votes for that. They'll never dismantle the whole thing.
