If the Majority of the American People are Against Obamacare, Why are the Republicans So Afraid to Oppose It? - The Rush Limbaugh Show: "RUSH: In one hour, we're gonna have Utah Senator Mike Lee on the program to explain in detail and in an understandable way what he's trying to do.  As you know, Mike Lee is leading the effort to defund Obamacare in the United States Senate.  The entire Republican establishment has aligned against him.  Consultants, establishment bigwigs, party bigwigs, even some donors have aligned against him because they are convinced that attempting to defund Obamacare at the next negotiation, the end of September, on a continuing resolution will lead to a government shutdown, and that will destroy the Republican Party. "
