Repeal & Defeat | The Weekly Standard
Repeal & Defeat | The Weekly Standard:
President Obama’s theory has always been that once health care reform passed, people would rally to it.
Well, they aren’t rallying yet. The last Rasmussen poll before the House passed Obamacare had 54 percent of voters opposed and 41 percent in favor. The first survey taken after the president signed the bill showed 55 percent favoring repeal, with 42 percent supporting the legislation. (Independents were 59 to 35 percent for repeal.) And the generic congressional ballot remained virtually unchanged, with Republicans holding the steady 7-9 point lead they’ve had since the new year. If anything like that margin holds, Republicans will win the House in November."
