For many people they are not going to be so lucky, that's why Obama keeps postponing things in the law, because he wants democrats to get elected, when people find out how the law effects them directly, they will only have the democrats to blame

You are 100% correct. You shouldn't have to get lucky in order for the law to work for you.
One of my biggest complaints is that many people will get many options when it comes to which policy they can buy. Many of them will be of a similar price, but the medications covered and actual coverage offered can vary greatly so you really need to do your homework before choosing one and if you have a family one policy may not cover all your needs.
Obamacare is a decent idea, but I think it is pretty obvious now that they are running into some serious issues with it and they are trying to fix it on the fly. Anytime the government does that it seems to fix one issue and cause two more.
The people that really win here are those who are low enough on the income ladder that they get free coverage. They now get health insurance that they likely didn't have before. The same goes for those who get a lot of government assistance in paying for it. They too now have coverage they didn't have before at a very good price. Some self employed people are benefiting, but many others are not.
I have a feeling this will end up being one of those things that costs a ton and the return on investment will be poor.
