Thank you. It was picked up by many of the public as a popular term for a popular president. But I don't think I've ever heard any Democrat in policy call it Obamacare. Closest we get is maybe "Healthcare reform under Obama".
The original purpose of the term was always to stroke the flames of people who people who hated Obama. So that they associate Obama with "giving handouts".
