Who really was behind obamacare?

First, the official name for it is the "Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA)." Its opponents often refer to it as "Obamacare," when they are trying to blame the president for an act with which they disagree. This act was passed by congress in March 2010. As for who was behind it, it was a priority for Democrats and for the president; they were trying to reform health care in the United States. The PPACA passed the Senate with all Democrats voting for it, and all Republicans voting against it. It should be noted that while Democrats voted for it, some felt it did not go far enough: they would have preferred a "Single Payer" system. But Democrats ultimately agreed to pass the act because they believed it made a good start in eliminating some of the problems with the health care system. Their Republican opponents disagreed and promised that if a Republican was elected, the PPACA (or "Obamacare") would be repealed.


What is the Democratic Party abbreviation?

The Democratic Party is 'run' by the Democratic National Committee (DNC) which writes the party platform and organizes the party conventions - that is usually what is used to refer to the entire party (even though there are separate state operations). Similar language is used for the Republicans (RNC). You will see occasional reference to Republicans as the GOP (Grand Old Party) but that is more of a historical reference than working acronym. The Democratic Party does not have a similar acronym.

Is it early in the piece?

Episodes in time are usually referred to as "periods" so if one was to refer to a 'piece' of time, one would be more likely to refer to "early in the period". Peace IS a period of time, however, so it is legitimate to say "early in the peace (time)" although it has colloquially come to mean "soon after any event" not just the onset of peace.

What was the lame duck term?

The 'lame duck' term indicates the period in a presidency that the US President is no longer actively pushing through legislation or getting any major policies off the ground. Most commonly that happens when he is losing influence because he is sure to be on the way out, usually in the last one or two years of his second term when he can no longer be reelected. Another instance can be a period when the President has no majority in Congress and his opponents are actively working to block anything that might make him realize his plans and policies. It can also refer to the US Congress as an example. The current US Congress has a majority of Republicans and a majority of Democrats in the Senate. The newly elected Congress will have a majority in the Senate of Republicans and an overwhelming majority of Republicans in the House of Representatives.
