Thanks, It helps to understand it better. I thought Obamacare was a pejorative term for medicare, but I see it is a pejorative term for the ACA.
But as I just checked, it seems that all the republicans voted against it and that support for ACA was considered toxic, and that this negatively affected Mitt Romney's standing in the party. I am of course happy to understand more.
Do note, that I have been watching and learning more about American politics and history since 1990, since before the Gulf War. Theres a distinct trend towards partisanship, which got enhanced during the era of Fox news, and has now resulted in hyper-partisanship.
(Do note that America is not particular alone in dealing with this trend)
