Obamacare: A dose of reality brings many naysayers to their senses

It's especially notable that three Republican women delivered what could be the effort's death blow since Senate Republicans excluded all of their female members from the initial working group convened to decide the fate of Obamacare. Instead, the group was made up of 13 men. 

At the time, the move was seen as an effort by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to placate the staunchly conservative arm of his party, but it also alienated the more moderate bloc—including the three female lawmakers—in the process.

This study should be taken with a full box of salt
