Boehner says 'ObamaCare is the law of the land'

By Elise Viebeck - 11/08/12 07:44 PM ET

Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) suggested Thursday that he will no longer push to repeal healthcare reform, calling it "the law of the land."

Republicans' defeat in the presidential race and their failure to claim the Senate all but ensures the future of President Obama's signature law.

The current House has voted more than 30 times to repeal, dismantle or defund the Affordable Care Act to no avail, given Democrats' control of the Senate.
