Republican's are the only ones worrying about the future financial health of the plan, and all the Democrats will do is play the fear game and tell everyone that the callous Republicans want to throw Grandma under the train because they are horrid people who get pleasure that way.

The major liberal media will assist their Democrat comrades with this strategy.

Somehow the Republicans have to get their message understood, or do what I would do.
I'd take a page from the Democrat playbook and say I'm for whatever the majority wants, when it comes to this issue, and then when I've taken the Senate and hopefully the White House I would resurrect Ryan's plan. Deception is what the Democrats do well, and maybe we should emulate.
