Certain people in this thread seem to be forgetting that roughly 25-30% of the opposition to Obamacare, according to polls, comes from the left (people who want single-payer). Only about 40-45% of the nation opposes Obamacare from the right.
I also suspect you will see a small jump in public opinion for the act now that it has been upheld. Whether or not it makes sense, there are voters out there who unconsciuosly like to be on the "winning" side of an issue and will change their minds now.
Anyways, Mitt won't bring this issue up very often because he knows he looks like a hypocrite on it. Also because the patient protection reforms are very popular and now he's on record wanting to repeal them.
