Actually the Republicans own large parts of it, they were able to participate in the process when the ACA was passed.  Very unlike this time around.  What the Republicans DO OWN is gutting provisions and making it harder to be effective.  What the Republicans DO OWN is the fact that they made a boogy man out of legislation what gave millions coverage for the first time, instead of making it better, and then got caught in their own lie.  John McCain may never be able to run again.  But last night, he stood up for millions who were going to be thrown under the bus.  Maybe it would have been better to pass it, it would have guaranteed a huge Democratic take over in 2018.  Many of us know or have family members who would have been devastated by this atrocious legislation.
