Opposition to Health Care Plan Hits New High of 56%
Friday, September 18, 2009 Email to a Friend ShareThisAdvertisementFifty-six percent (56%) of voters nationwide now oppose the health care reform proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats. That’s the highest level of opposition yet measured and includes 44% who are Strongly Opposed.

Just 43% now favor the proposal, including 24% who Strongly Favor it.

But the overall picture remains one of stability. While the numbers have bounced a bit following nationally televised appearances by the president to promote the plan, opposition has generally stayed above 50% since early July. Support has been in the low to mid 40s.

The number who Strongly Oppose the plan has remained above 40% and the Strongly Favor totals have been in the mid-20s. This suggests public opinion is hardening when it comes to the plan that is currently working its way through Congress.

However, now just 48% say that health care reform plan is at least somewhat likely to pass this year, a figure that has been trending down in recent days. That figure includes 17% who say passage is Very Likely.

I wonder if the poll results were tabulated by the same oaf that claimed over 1 million teabaggers on the Mall last weekend.
 
They need to ignore what the people think they want and give them what they need. You idiots will come around once you realize that you were duped into believing a bunch of bullshit about it that wasn't true.
 
I bet mememe! will accept guaranteed health care coverage at reduced rates, just like she takes Social Security and Medicare benefits.

I'm sure Counsellor Yurt is steadfast in his defense of entitlement programs. :rolleyes:
 
So you envision a better world in which you rule supreme - for our own good, naturally?

Do you not understand civics?

It's called a filibuster. And they got the 59 seat majority by getting conservative Democrats elected in formerly Republican seats. Conservative Democrats don't vote party line consistently.
