The Washington Post‘s Ezra Klein writes [1]:
It’s put-up-or-shut-up time for Republicans. They managed to make it through the health-care debate without offering serious solutions of their own, and – perhaps more impressive – through the election by promising to tell us their solutions after they’d won. But the jig is up. They need a health-care plan – and quickly.
The GOP knew this day would come.
Say what? Exactly what political factors are forcing the GOP to put up or shut up? Their base is happy; it wants an all-out assault on ObamaCare [2], and congressional Republicans are giving it to them. Republicans are even winning the ObamaCare debate among the broader public [3]:
