Gregg: Repeal not best tactic on healthcare law

A top Senate Republican suggested Monday night that the party’s prevailing strategies to curtail the new healthcare law might not be good ideas.

Sen. Judd Gregg (N.H.), the top Republican on the Senate Budget Committee, said that repealing the new healthcare reform law — or looking to defund it — were not good options.

This is a change from:

“Our view is, you repeal and replace this bill,” Gregg said on CNN in March. “You replace it with better law and better approaches towards healthcare.”

If you are surprised by this, that probably means you’ll be voting Republican in November.
