More of us like "Obamacare" than don't - Lemon Drop - 11-07-2012
"The early exit polls provide some findings that will warm the heart of Democrats.
One surprise: the survey of voters as they leave polling places around the country suggests that Obamacare was not the albatross for Democrats that many thought it would be. Forty-seven percent of voters said they would like to see the law remain as is on the books or expanded, two percentage points more than the 45 percent who said the law should be fully or partially repealed."

This is not a surprise. Polls have shown this all along. The right wingers yelling drowned it out.

And when the attack ads stop, most of the folks who had identified it as the source of everything that's wrong with their lives will forget about it.

CBS had an exit poll showing a quarter of voters thought the law didn't go far enough towards singlepayer.

This is actually a shift in polls, previously a slim majority said they opposed the law, and it was expected to be a political liability for the President (as it was in 2010)
