OBAMA AGENDA: 57% BACK PUBLIC OPTION

According to a new Washington Post/ABC poll, 57% of respondents support a public option. A new Washington Post-ABC News poll shows that support for a government-run health-care plan to compete with private insurers has rebounded from its summertime lows and wins clear majority support from the public. Americans remain sharply divided about the overall packages moving closer to votes in Congress and President Obama's leadership on the issue, reflecting the partisan battle that has raged for months over the administration's top legislative priority. But sizable majorities back two key and controversial provisions: both the so-called public option and a new mandate that would require all Americans to carry health insurance.”
 

should I doctor house? I mean the more threads to put the truth of the matter in the better right? :lol:


EDIT: I think I will

People are still unsure on this particular package, but the general will seems pretty clear.

It all depends on which polling data you use.

Health Care Reform - Rasmussen Reports™ see that poll shows that 54% oppose the new plan that includes a public option. And considering the Obama adminstration said their 53% of the vote victory was an overwhelming victory I have to say this is overwhelming dissaproval of the new plan.

Plus when Americans find out the real truth, as stated by the democrats who support it, the public option containing bill will continue to lose support. This truth as stated by those who support the bill is that the public option is the gateway to Government Run Single Payer Health CARE.


Many democrats, including those in Obama's administration agree
