Are you referring to the top six in V's post, including
Cigna and
Aetna, both of which contributed more to Republicans than Democrats?
Many of the large fast food joints (McDonalds, etc) got waivers because they have a signficant number of part time workers, who at best, get a mini-plan that could not meet the new benefit caps and w/o the waiver would have to drop even that little coverage provided....and their association PAC opposed the bill.
The stink over the temporary waivers to "friends of Obama" is just more of the same stink coming from those opposed to the bill from the start, not on merit, but on misrepresentation.
