Pelosi is now saying that she "always" has called it ACA or Affordable Care Act.
Right. And we've always been at war with Eastasia.
These people are straining the 5-minute attention span of their core voters, to the max.
Obama himself once predicted that, when it started working well, his opponents would stop calling it Obamacare, and would glumly call it something else.
The term “Obamacare” has largely disappeared from the mouths of Democrats as the president’s health care reform law has gone from a rallying cry to a political grenade.
President Obama once said he embraced the phrase on the 2012 campaign trail, telling supporters, “I do care.” As recently as Nov. 8, Obama predicted to a laughing crowd in New Orleans that his political opponents would stop using the term once the law became popular.

That part is true but compared to what the government is doling out for Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare, and the VA its about half the cost. The trouble is its a "private" insurance program and not a government health program. Its hardly a takeover of health insurance as Republicans like to claim. Isnt the private sector supposed to be more efficient than government?

Hard to be efficient and affordable due to the many mandates imposed on it. Look at the dental insurance (pediatric) mandate. Dental insurance has routinely been the worst insurance out there, makes the "junk" medical insurance plans seem good, yet due to lobbying by the ADA, we have mandated pediatric dental insurance.
Have the govt give less mandates while preserving the absoultely essential ones, allow more flexibility, and you would have more efficiency.
