From the USA Today on March 23: “More Americans now favor than oppose the health care overhaul that President Obama signed into law Tuesday, a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll finds — a notable turnaround from surveys before the vote that showed a plurality against the legislation. By 49%-40%, those polled say it was a good thing rather than a bad one that Congress passed the bill. Half describe their reaction in positive terms — as enthusiastic or pleased — while about four in 10 describe it in negative ways, as disappointed or angry.”Nancy Pelosi told us once it would pass we'd find out what was in it and we'd be happy.Democrats acted triumphant.
Not so fast.
From the USA Today 6 days later: “A USA TODAY/Gallup Poll shows an uphill selling job ahead for President Obama and congressional Democrats to convince most Americans that the health care overhaul passed last week will help them and their families. In the poll, 50% call passage of the bill a bad thing and 47% say it was a good thing. That’s at odds with the findings of a one-day USA TODAY Poll taken a week ago — a day after the U.S. House approved the legislation — in which a 49%-40% plurality called the bill a good thing.”
So there has been a 12-point turnaround — up by 9 points to down by 3 points — in the popularity of Obamacare in just 6 days.
Not happening, Nan. The more America hears about Obamacare the less they like it...and you.
