The White House today gathered patients from around the country who have benefited from the measure, and the president highlighted changes that take effect at the 6-month mark tomorrow. These include a ban on lifetime coverage limits, as well as free coverage for preventive care and immunizations. Young adults will be able to stay on their parents' plans until they turn 26, and kids with pre-existing health conditions won't be denied coverage.
"Sometimes I fault myself for not being able to make the case more clearly to the country," said Obama.

And with crucial midterm elections six weeks away, the only Democrats running ads about the historic legislation are the ones who voted "no."
