I wish you were right. America is VERY different from Europe though. Republicans don’t even pretend to support any of this – not sure where you got that.

“A healthcare plan is coming” and never present it is nowhere near “We’re going to give you free healthcare”. If they said that, most of their base would not vote.

In fact, you might argue a factor that re-elected Obama was that Romney was a candidate that had introduced something like Obamacare in MA. A ton of Republicans hated him specifically for that.
