One think tank says the Affordable Care Act is responsible for about 25 percent of a projected drop in health costs. This is only the beginning. It certainly has the expected initial glitches inherent in every new program. The kinks, bugs will be worked out, and again, you Pubs will be back to picking your noses while you chase your tails. This with egg on your faces.

'... most economists believe that the lion's share of the reduction is due to the sluggish economy -- making Americans far more careful when it comes to making decisions regarding when or if to spend money on medical care...'
How about imposing a depression to further lower health costs.

Favorite con tactic: quoting from context. Here is the whole paragraph for the unbiased who seek truth and not right wing talking points.
While most economists believe that the lion's share of the reduction is due to the sluggish economy -- making Americans far more careful when it comes to making decisions regarding when or if to spend money on medical care -- others believe that some of the plans built into the ACA designed to get people to spend less may actually be working.
For those of you who said it couldn't be fixed we have this from the CMS team today:
As of noon today, more than 3.7 million consumers have visited HealthCare.gov this week (from midnight Sunday until noon Friday) to learn about their health insurance options, create an account, learn about financial help, compare options and select a plan.
This week, the site remained stable and experienced no unscheduled downtimes. The average error rate was 0.77% and response time averaged well under 1 second, two of our key metrics in determining site performance.

If MOST believe one thing, clearly OTHERS believe something else.

Read it and weep, Pubs.
4 million signed up for plans this week alone ?
This article says 3.7 million visited the site this week. No mention that they all signed up for plans though.
Your source ?

Nothing like 'the CMS team' for reliable, impartial info.
You left out the all the rotten stuff about the back-end,' getting info to the insurers.
BTW, I want the exchange websites to work perfectly. Let Ocare fail or succeed on its merits, not fail because the technology doesn't work.
