58% Want Repeal of Obamacare

Although the Dems are trying to keep Obamacare out of the news in order to reduce its impact on the November elections, it still resonates strongly as an issue with the voters and they don't like it:

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 58% now favor repeal of the bill while 35% are opposed to repeal.

Rasmussen Reports has been tracking support for repeal weekly since the bill became law. Overall support for repeal is down two points from a week ago but is still higher than in the immediate aftermath of the Congressional debate.

The number who favor repeal now includes 48% who Strongly Favor it. Just 28% are Strongly Opposed.

The number who Strongly Favor repeal has been higher just once since the bill became law. Overall, weekly results show that the number who Strongly Favor repeal has run from a low of 44% to a high of 50%.

Democrats plan to hide from their voters this summer to avoid the kind of contentious town hall meetings that Obamacare caused last year. That's not going to make the issue go away, but it will give the GOP some great fodder for commercials this Fall.
