VINTON, Iowa, Jan. 22 (UPI) -- Hillary Clinton has been taking increasing credit for the Affordable Care Act in a bid to discredit the healthcare policy of opponent Sen. Bernie Sanders.
At a campaign stop Thursday in Vinton, Iowa, she told supporters: "It was called Hillarycare before it was called Obamacare. I don't want to start over again, I don't want to rip up this accomplishment and begin this contentious debate all over again."
**SNIP**
By contrast, the healthcare reform plan put forward by Clinton's husband in 1993 was far more overreaching than the Affordable Care Act, and in fact more similar to Sanders' plan for single-payer. The Clinton Health Security Act, as it was called, did not even make it to a vote in the Democratic-led Congress.

It was called RomneyCare before it was ObamaCare, too.
I thought it was RomneyCare before anybody cared ...
And it was just as unpopular when it was HillaryCare.
The only difference then from now is that now if you oppose it you are a racist.
Probably not a good comparison, considering that Hillarycare was a bigger flop than Obamacare.
No mater what the name, it is total SHIT!!!!
So are both of them, so I think it sort of evens out.
“Clinton: ‘It was called HillaryCare before it was called Obamacare’”

It was called ridiculous before it was called totally ridiculous.

Vote for the person who you would buy a used car from.
It was a miserable idea then that turned out to be a colossal mistake. Only a moron would take credit for any part of it.
and this smartest woman in the world wants to take credit for it. Then she’s going to go wipe her ass and take a dump.
I don’t care whose Care it was before it was implemented and now my care is it destroyed my employer based healthcare leaving me with no hope of affording any on my own in the forseeable future.
