The Republican Party falls apart here: There are three coalitions in Congress right now, the straight repealers, the replacers, and the Democrats. Even if "Republicans" are in control, neither of their factions have enough votes to prevail.

Repealers are afraid if they don't deliver on their many years of promises, they will lose office in 2018. Replacers know that if they throw 20 million people off health insurance they will lose office in 2018. And you know what? They are both probably right!

Republicans have painted themselves into a corner. I think the only way out for them is to adopt RomneyCare exactly as written for all 50 states and our territories. Then everybody gets coverage and it was invented by a Republican.

But they are probably too stupid to go for it, so they will lose Congress in 2018 for failing to deliver,
