Indiana GOP asked for Obamacare horror stories and got tons of praise instead

Republicans are trying to do everything they can to make their unpopular healthcare bill popular, but there's only so much you can polish a turd.

Take what happened in Indiana this week. Members of the state's GOP asked the public to send them their Obamacare horror stories, then were flooded with positive recollections of the bill.

"Did you lose a doctor that you liked? Have your premiums increased? Did your insurer leave the exchange? Are burdensome regulations hurting your small business?" the party asked on Facebook.

Here's what the "liberal trolls" had to say:

"Thanks to the ACA we could both run our family business instead of me working 40 hours at one job and 40 at the other. Had to stay employed for the insurance (which was still pricey). But we could afford to keep my husband on insulin. Thanks Obama for not letting diabetes be the reason he dies," one commenter wrote.

"I am able to get treated for a heart condition. It has enabled me to continue to work and function. I am so grateful for the ACA," another said.

"I don't have to decide between my $300 a month medication and food anymore. I get regular check ups. My health is better than it's ever been. Take away our health insurance and see what happens," one woman wrote.

Even shorter comments told important stories, guaranteed to make you weep while scrolling:

"At 40, married. 41, started a business with my wife. 42, bladder cancer. The story ends there without ACA. 43, remission," one man wrote.

"I lost my insurance when my husband died of cancer, four months later I lost my job. The ACA allowed me to purchase insurance at an affordable cost and allowed me to stay in our home of 28 years," one commentator wrote.

Only 16 percent of Americans approve of the House Bill, including just 34 percent of Republicans. That hasn't stopped Republican leadership from doing everything they can to get it passed and otherwise let the party self-destruct in 2018.
