All but eight Senate Republicans just voted for a “fix” to the “doc fix” that will build on Obamacare by herding doctors into Accountable Care Organizations that “will provide a direct route for the federal government to exert full control over the practice of medicine.”

Respected conservatives were essentially united against the “doc fix” bill that Congress just passed, but that didn’t stop Republicans from responding to special-interest lobbyists and then crowing about “entitlement reform.”

As Obamacare compels people to buy insurance yet still fails to hit coverage targets — hitting only 46 percent of original CBO projections for the net decline in the rate of uninsured — it’s time to repeal it and replace it with a winning conservative alternative.

If Republicans unite behind a tax-credit-based conservative alternative that would effectively repeal and replace Obamacare in 37 states, they can avoid turning a potential win at the Court into a loss for repeal.

A year ago, the Congressional Budget Office projected that enrollment in Obamacare’s exchanges would double (from 6 to 13 million) from 2014 to 2015, but that hasn’t happened, and in some states enrollment has actually dropped.

When Obamacare was passed, the CBO said it would increase the number of people with health insurance by 26 million in 2015, but it now says the number is just 17 million, most of whom are being dumped into Medicaid.

Since the start of President Obama’s second term, 200 straight polls have found Obamacare to be unpopular, and it will be repealed in 2017 if Republicans will unite around a winning alternative.

Whether the Court rules for King or for Burwell, the fact that only 13 states have set up Obamacare exchanges is evidence of the remarkable and continuing opposition to President Obama's signature legislation.

With Obamacare's onerous regulations intruding on the practice of medicine, some doctors are finding successful ways to serve needy patients while freeing themselves from the stifling restrictions of Obamacare and Medicaid.
