Is single-payer health care (Medicare for All) not an idea?
Sure. Even terribly unworkable ideas count as ideas. But only a couple of democrats are willing to come out and publicly support it since they know it'll collapse under its own weight.
It doesn't have uniform support within the party, but the same is also true of any single idea on the GOP side (lots would support getting rid of the ACA in favor of market-based solution, but not enough within the GOP to actually enact that into law).
Obama was smart enough to set up a system that resulted in the government giving something away to the voters...and if the Republicans tried to do anything, they'd have to put themselves in the position of taking something away from the people (no matter how bad the thing is). He always was a master cynic.
