“Thank you, Willard, for helping the Legislature, the SCOTUS and me pass the Affordable Care Act.
High five, buddy”

And don’t be surprised if Obama gives a “shout-out” to Romney, either.
If I were President Obama, and thank heavens I’m not, I would hold a presser and I’d say the following:
“Today is a momentous day, big victory, etc., etc. But more than anything, I’d like to thank Governor Romney for his inspiration in crafting the ACA; we used the plan passed by Governor Romney in _________ (I forgot what year it was), as the basis for the ACA. Again, thank you Governor Romney, for providing the light and the leadership on this vital issue, blah, blah, blah.”
That’s what I would say if I were the current occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. But then again, I’m kind of an SOB who loves to needle his opponents.
“Thank you, Willard, for helping the Legislature, the SCOTUS and me pass the Affordable Care Act.
High five, buddy”

You made me laugh and cry at the same time. You nailed it perfectly. Obama and his minions got ObamaCare handed to them on a SuperSized Happy Meal...it came with a special toy called Campaign 2012 Talking Points
