Republicans are
running for Congress on a promise to get rid
of Obamacare -- or to replace it with an as yet unrevealed Republican alternative.
So, understandably, they are apoplectic that the health care enrollment is fast becoming a resounding success, with more than 6 million already enrolled and more than 500,000 calls a day coming in.
To double their apoplexy, a new poll by the Kaiser Family Foundation reveals that
59% want to keep Obamacare as it is (10%) or keep it and improve it (49%).
29% want to get rid of it (18%) or replace it with a Republican alternative (11%).
Bad news for Republicans; very welcome good news for Democrats. And it will only get better as the success of enrollment begins to sink in and challenge all the nay-sayers.

This poll contrasts with others, where questions are more focused on things people here drilled into them by FoxNews, etc. Like approval ratings, etc.
ReplyDeleteThis Kaiser poll asks what people want Congress to do about it. Seems that's the far more crucial question. ACA is the law at this point, yet opponents are acting as though it's still 2011 and they can sway the vote against it.
