How low can it go? ObamaCare poll numbers drop -- again | Fox News
President Obama is struggling to stop the steady slide in public support for his health care law, as yet another poll shows public approval of the law -- and his job performance -- hitting a new low.
The survey from CBS News depicts a startling drop in support for the Affordable Care Act. Approval dropped to 31 percent, down 12 points since October.
According to the poll, the president's approval rating also slipped to 37 percent, from 46 percent just last month.
Both figures represent the lowest of Obama's presidency in CBS polling.
While Republicans are united in their opposition to the health care law, the latest numbers reflect new skepticism among Democrats and independents.
Obama has been facing criticism from his own party for both the failures of HealthCare.gov as well as cancellation notices that have gone out to those on the individual market whose policies did not make the cut under ObamaCare's new standards. The president last week gave insurance companies a one-year extension, allowing them to re-offer those out-of-compliance plans.
But it's unclear how many insurance commissioners and companies will consent, given the difficulties of making the sudden switch after years of planning. The president plans to meet with insurance commissioners on Wednesday afternoon.
Americans are finally coming out of there Kool-aid induced Comas.
