        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.

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