Despite the self-salutations given by the Democrats Saturday night after the passage of its "historic" bill that includes government-run health care, more Americans oppose ObamaCare than favor it.So says Rasmussen:
Over the weekend, Democratic leaders spoke of an historic moment as health care reform legislation passed the House of Representatives. But that legislative victory failed to significantly move public opinion.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 45% now favor the health care plan proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats. Most (52%) remain opposed.
Only 25% Strongly Support the plan while 42% are Strongly Opposed.
Support for the plan has remained essentially unchanged for months. Last week, it was supported by 42% and two weeks ago support was at 45%. It has generally stayed between 41% and 46% since July, and support has bounced above that level only in the wake of nationally televised appeals by the president.
If you want a second health bill opinion, take a look at this CNN poll. It comes to the same conclusion.
