Health Care Fight Moves to Senate Races Much of the political chatter of the day has been about the impact of the Supreme Court's ruling on the presidential campaign. But the court's decision to let stand President Obama's health care plan may hold even more import in the battle for control of the Senate. Republicans on Capitol Hill vowed on Thursday to repeal the health care law. But the truth is they can only do that if they control both chambers of Congress. In 2010, anger over the health care law helped fuel a Republican wave that gave the party control of the House. If the court had overturned the health care law, that intensity might have faded. But now, conservative activists say they will be fired up again to do whatever is necessary to get rid of "Obamacare," and winning the Senate will be crucial. The could fuel a surge in attack ads about health care financed by third-party groups and aimed squarely at Democrats who voted for the health care law. "The last time Obamacare was litigated in a general election, Republicans picked up an historic number of seats in the U.S. House and made big gains in the U.S. Senate," said Jonathan Collegio, a spokesman for American Crossroads, a conservative group which that some health care ads in 2010. He added: "The Supreme Court effectively made the 2012 elections the most important in a century, and dramatically energized the center-right coalition in the process." The Senator majority leader, Harry Reid of Nevada, said on the Senate floor that Republicans should move past the issue. "It's time, though, for Republicans to stop refighting yesterday's battles," Mr. Reid said. Now that this matter is settled, let's move on to other things like jobs. Judging from the reaction among conservative groups, that appears unlikely.
