Obama Embraces Term 'Obamacare'

By    |   Wednesday, 03 October 2012 10:20 PM EDT

President Barack Obama is happy with the term Obamacare, even adopting
the phrase himself during the first presidential debate this evening in
Denver, Colo.

Mitt Romney charged that Obamacare would be forefront on his list of
areas where he would cut spending, immediately qualifying, "I apologize
Mr. President, I use that term with all respect."

But the commander in chief is embracing the once-derogatory term,
smiling back at challenger Romney and saying, "I like it." He later used the term himself.

Obama has also been known to use the phrase during campaign speeches.
