I think you like to argue nonsense just for the sake of it. Nothing I said in the post you are responding to is factually incorrect.

Obama did not try to get bipartisan support for the ACA. He knew he had the votes and parliamentary procedures to get it passed so he did the usual and thumbed his nose at the republicans. It's one of the reasons why the law is such a disaster today.

"Obama wanted to reach out and, quite frankly, the Democrats just aren't that organized."

The (D)'s don't have the corporate lobbyists writing the legislation and scheduling it's passage.
