Kaine: Dems won't bail out GOP in an Obamacare crisis

President Obama told Democrats to try to improve the Affordable Care Act, but to not work with Republicans if they simply repeal his signature legislative achievement over Democrat objections, Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine said Thursday.

“Can this law be improved? Can the healthcare system be improved? Sure it can, and we ought to be working together to do that,” the Virginia Democrat said on CNN. “But, if they force through a partisan repeal vote and rush into a repeal that strips health insurance from 30 million Americans and then say, ‘Oh now please help us fix the mess we made,’ [Obama] said don’t bail them out of their own problem.”
