        so they know what they’re supposed to hate.

        a poll asking about ‘affordable care act’ only, with no mention of ‘obamacare’ will get significantly different responses than one that does reference president obama.

          That really shows just how childish the Republican base is. Liberals aren’t lying when they say these people only listen to buzzwords.

          It should forever be referenced as “The ACA (Obamacare)”. Never let anyone forget what they did.

      This^

      A lot of polling found support for the ACA jumped when it was referred to by its actual name and not OBamacare
