MAJORITY OF AMERICANS STILL NOT THRILLED WITH OBAMACARE…


Well it would seem that ‘Dingy Harry’s’ accusations that people are liars who are, essentially, too stupid to know how to use a computer, haven’t exactly improved how most folks now view what is a seizure by Democrats of how they are able to obtain their healthcare. Because a brand new poll seems to point out that those who say they support Obamacare equates to just 26 percent of the population. However, and something that makes very little sense to me, the poll also points out that at the same time only 13 percent want to have the law completely repealed. I guess you could put me firmly within that 13 percent.

The Associated Press-Gfk survey was completed before the White House announced this week that it had supposedly signed up 6 million people for private health plans through the state and federal exchanges under Obamacare. The poll showed that 7 in 10 American believe the law will stay on the books with some changes. The AP noted that support for the law has dropped 13 points since 2010, when 39 percent favored the law. Opposition also has dipped 7 percentage points from 2010, when it stood at 43 percent. The number of people on the fence, the AP reported, has tripled from 10 percent to 30 percent.

The limited support for the law is similar to what the poll found in January and December when it stood at 27 percent. Republicans hope that the public opposition to the law will help them defend their House majority and pick up the six net seats they need to flip control of the Senate in November. This despite the fact that such Democrat notables as Nancy Pelosi and DNC chair Debbie Wizzerman Schultz  Debbie Wizzerman Schultz have said, repeatedly, that Obamacare remains something that Democrats can, and will, very proudly run on and that ‘Dingy Harry’ has recently claimed has now "dropped way down in significance." So I guess we’ll see.
