   The repubs should face it:  the dems have won on Obamacare, and probably   
   a single payer system.   
      
   It could have been repealed perhaps after Obama's first term, but by the   
   second term Obamacare had become a basic human right entitlement.   
      
   Republicans can only add to Obamacare.  Doing nothing makes Obamacare   
   crash and burn, with republicans getting blamed for letting it crash.   
      
   The only alternative for repubs now is to expand Obamacare and call it   
   something else.
