House Republicans passed a bill to repeal President Barack Obama’s health care plan Wednesday, taking their first major step toward rolling back the massive overhaul that has dominated the American political landscape for almost two years.

The vote was 245 to 189, and unanimous GOP support gave the vote the same partisan feel of the March vote to pass the law, underscoring once again the hardened political lines of the health care debate. Only three Democrats backed the repeal, a smaller number than Republicans had once predicted.

It is going to be interesting to see what happens now. I know it will not get anywhere in the Senate.

yeah sadly it will die in the Senate. Let's hope that the ones who pushed for the repeal keep doing everything they can (what's next I don't know) because a symbolic victory isn't going to cut it.

I agree. What they do next is going to define whether or not the GOP will be the third party in 2012.
