Last year, Reps. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) vowed that Obamacare would be so popular with voters that Democrats wouldrun on the president's health care law leading up to the Nov. 4 midterm elections. A new Associated Press poll, however, may give Democrats pause, as just 28% of Americans now support Obamacare.
The AP poll's abysmal Obamacare support findings include all forms of support; just 17% of Americans said they "strongly support" Obamacare and 11% said they "somewhat support" the president's signature legislative achievement.
Opposition to Obamacare totaled 43% with a majority of those (32%) saying they "strongly oppose" the health care law and 11% saying they "somewhat oppose" it. Those listing "neither support or oppose" totaled 28%.

Reps. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL):
You blew it again, girls. Your blind adherence to this man and this party are unbelievable. But what do you care, really, as in a few years you'll be basking in the sun in your million dollar houses, laughing at the rest of us.
That 28% are the Democrats that don't need it. The politicians and the entitlement crowd.
Let's all hope that the Dems do run on Barrycare... Out with the old, in with the new.
A high percentage of opposed (me include)are not happy because it should have gone further to single payer. Cut out the profit generating middle man, insurance companies.

That's what the Dems tried to say was going to happen.
And it is what should have happened 4:44. Medicare for all and supplements you pay for, it works for everyone over 65.
If it is good enough for those over 65 why not those under 65.
2:49 please educate yourself before you write incorrect statements and make yourself look like a fool. I will not educate you here as I don't have the time and I doubt you have the intelligence to comprehend the facts or the willingness to change your OPINION. But I will offer a quick fact that should drive you to consider that you may be wrong... CareFirst BCBS - The largest Insurance company in the Mid-Atlantic, is a not for profit and operates on less than a 2% margin... Can your business survive on 2%.. I think not. If you want o see how your single payer system will work, reach out to any vet and ask them how well the VA has been doing. You people who make statements on emotion and not facts really need to understand the environment before you rant.
