Bills typically come through long processes and variations get swallowed into other variations. The ultimate bill is a combination of those things and the Republicans could have put anyone's name on it. Though I give credit to some practical minded old line Republicans who really helped shape it, not the newer class of really unsavory types. Getting the naming rights wasn't what it was about. If countering their destructive and obstructionist behavior had been that simple, I'm sure we would have had 8 years of relative ease and harmony.

Obama's names are on no bills. Obama Care was a name started by the republicans as a form of derision that the President embraced. It wasn't on the bill. The bill was a complete compromise to the GOP so they'd vote for it, they gave them everything they asked for and then they refused to vote for it. IF it had been a Democratic bill it would have been a single payer, comprehensive bill that would have truly been affordable.

The GOP did not want compromise, anymore than they want it now. The issue now is despite some pretty amazing levels of control, they don't have complete control, so they will still have some challenges. But, let's face it, if they had wanted friendly compromise, the Dems were constantly compromising. It's the extremists in the GOP base, and the gerrymandering of their districts that make them so extreme, that got us here.
