no it was b/c the majority of the country was against the legislation and still are...
Nonsense. It was a purely political move, which they made without examing the legislation in question and judging it on its merits. Pay attention: I'm not saying that they would have discovered it was a worthwhile piece of legislation if they had examined it; they wouldn't have. But the stance of the Republicans on this - and every other issue that came before Congress during the Obama Administration - was purely partisan.
the majority of their constituents didnt want this horrible piece of legislation passed thats why they didnt vote for it.
Right, because Members of Congress
always vote exactly the way their constituents would vote...
But let's assume that they do - that they just reflect the will of their constituents at any given point in time. So what? It's hardly surprising that a district that elected a Republican congressman would be populated with Republicans who would, more likely than not, be opposed to Obamacare.
Do you not remember all the town halls were ppl were telling their reps that if they voted for it they were going to get voted out of office?
Excluding those are are in the center, who are "in play" so to speak, the parties have a more or less even split of the vote, each from their respective ends of the spectrum; For every one such person there was another person saying "if you don't vote for it, you're going to get voted out of office."
