Looks like the showdown over Obama Care may have been de-railed.

The Republican leader (Mitch McConnell) in the Senate, has confirmed that he will NOT be supporting a move to limit Sen. Reed's resolution to allow him to remove the Amendment de-funding Obama Care, in the House resolution to extend the debt limit.

It seems the Republican leadership did not approve of Sen. Cruz and Lee's efforts to bring forth this "Choose a higher debt limit, or choose to fund Obama Care", House resolution.

So they (McConnell and pals in the Senate) will axe it, but all in phrases that sound like they're fighting to kill Obama Care, of course. (McConnell is up for re-election this year, in Kentucky.)

Mitch may find that a hard act to cover up in Kentucky, if Obama Care doesn't work out well.

Republicans failing to work with other Republicans who have good ideas. Nothing new to see here!
