Ted Cruz is right.  It is painful to do what is right but ultimately it is more painful to do nothing when we feel we should but do not have the courage.  Many in the senate are worried about the elections next year, and rightly so..  They need to be worried esp. if the conservatives do not come forward with campaign money to make sure conservatives have support in difficult Senate Elections next year. I was so pleased that Senator Roberts offered to take Senator Cruz to breakfast. It was a touch of "down home" courtesy in the Senate. Obama Care will bring down our economy so I hope that Republicans can destroy  it before it destroys our health care system.  While it may make us equal to all have lower quality medical care it does not mean that we are improving the system.
