Interesting health care poll

Obviously statistics are not the strong suit of the OP and The Hill Blogger...

You cannot take the % who favor the bill and just add the % who oppose it because it doesn't go far enough... Well, you can if you're stupid...

That's not how statistics works...
 
Forty-one percent (41%) think most members of Congress are corrupt, a view while 33% disagree. Another 26% are not sure.

Some dude in a fancy car, (probably cheating to get it runnin so fast), was on the pole for NASCAR last week. My mail box sits on a pole. I build fences on my property with poles. Obama spent millions displaying his pet projects on poles. The 'Yards put Cong heads on poles. Polls in a non election year mean about the same thing.
Election results count. Polls do not mean a damn thing.
 
You're counting Brown as a vote for ObamaCare?

Not at all. I'm counting Brown as inconsequential.

He's already been consequential. He forced the Dums to use an unconstitutional procedure to pass a bill no one likes that will be not be amended by an unpopular process.
Can't get more consequential than that.
they were not unconstitutional measures, the filibuster, the super majority vote is what is not in the constitution.

It's exactly what they did...

The politico blogger took the 39% who favored and added the 13% who felt it didn't go far enough... That's where the 52% comes from...
