Read the latest poll results concerning ObamaCare from Gateway Pundit:
WOW! 62% of Americans Want GOP to Fight Unpopular Obamacare
"Americans are getting fed up with the leftist thugs and their socialist plans for America–
62% of Americans
CBS reported, via Dan Riehl:
'A CBS News poll released Wednesday finds that nearly two in three Americans want Republicans in Congress to continue to challenge parts of the health care reform bill.
The Senate version of the legislation was passed by the House Sunday night, and President Obama signed it into law on Tuesday. The House also passed a separate reconciliation bill, which cannot be filibustered, that is now being debated in the Senate. That bill would make changes to the bill already signed into law.
Senate Republicans are now challenging whether the bill is truly a budget reconciliation bill (which is what makes it filibuster-proof) and inserting amendments designed to slow down passage. Republican attorneys general are also planning to challenge the constitutionality of the law.
The poll finds that 62 percent want Congressional Republicans to keep challenging the bill, while 33 percent say they should not do so. Nearly nine in ten Republicans and two in three independents want the GOP to keep challenging. Even 41 percent of Democrats support continued challenges.'"

55% of Americans Want Obamacare Repealed; 52% Will Vote For Pro-Repeal Candidates
"So much for an Obamacare bounce… Most Americans want Pelosi’s Christmas Present returned and repealed.
Rasmussen reported:
'Just before the House of Representatives passed sweeping health care legislation last Sunday, 41% of voters nationwide favored the legislation while 54% were opposed. Now that President Obama has signed the legislation into law, most voters want to see it repealed.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey, conducted on the first two nights after the president signed the bill, shows that 55% favor repealing the legislation. Forty-two percent (42%) oppose repeal. Those figures include 46% who Strongly Favor repeal and 35% who Strongly Oppose it.
In terms of Election 2010, 52% say they’d vote for a candidate who favors repeal over one who does not. Forty-one percent (41%) would cast their vote for someone who opposes repeal.
Not surprisingly, Republicans overwhelmingly favor repeal while most Democrats are opposed. Among those not affiliated with either major party, 59% favor repeal, and 35% are against it.'
The corruptocrats were hoping that once the bill was passed that Americans would rally around it.
Think again."

Yeah, run on repeal. That'll work... if voters are even dumber than they seem. It's all but a mathematical impossibility for the GOP to gain control of both the House and the Senate. They need to gain 40 seats in the House, and 20 in the Senate. But that's not taking into consideration that they'd undoubtedly have to override a presidential veto, which jacks it up to a 2/3 majority in each house.
But go for it, as the President says.
We the People will go for it(REPEAL). The dictator and his henchmen have no right to vote their will. They are to represent the people; and they have NOT! Obama is an ignorant, self serving man who thinks he is something special. Everything he does is a big mess. Obama care is the same!
DiogenASS: Republicans will be running on the economy and jobs, if the majority of the people want the healthcare bill repealed, then so be it.
This administration seems to forget that this is a Democracy, that they work for the American people and not just special leftwing interest groups and the democrat party.
The last election didn't give this administration a mandate to transform America into some banana republic
While the democrats may have got the Independent vote in the last few years, that's changing dramatically and all the polls are showing it!
The Christians and Republicans who sat out the last election are seeing the consequences of their actions and they don’t like it!
They will be electing people that believe in capitalism with American principals and not some European style socialistic crap of redistribution of wealth.
I live in area that’s predominately democrat and even the die hard union democrats are walking away from this administrations madness
The only polls that matter occur in November. Until then, you're nothing but hot air, AnonyMouse.
And get some different talking points from the Teabaggers, willya? Yours are kind of threadbare. The "dictator" is the rightfully and lawfully elected President of the United States. Elections matter!
does your mama know any big fat teabaggers dio? ask her for some talking points, I don't know any teabaggers.
So it's just a coicidence that you mouth the same tired lame taling points as the Teabaggers? What are the odds? If I close my eyes, I can almost see a Gadsden flag fluttering out of your butt.
DiogenASS: That's a great idea!
Keep your eyes closed and your mouth shut.
Every once in a while you come up with something that makes perfect sense.
You live in a fantasy world anyway and nobody cares what you think or say, so just close them eyes and go back to sleep, BOY!
Ouch! Gosh, typing BOY instead of just Boy really hurts a lot!
You don't like what I have to say, AnonyMouse? Don't read it, then.
Or, more accurately, don't have anybody read it to you.
So how did you feel when President Bush was the rightfully and lawfully elected President? I'll bet you were just peachy weren't you? As for lame talking points, dems say "this bill reduces the deficit". How in hell can spending another trillion possibly do that? Name one thing gov't hasn't bankrupted other than the politicians and employees themselves. Social security: BROKE. Medicare: BROKE. Post office: BROKE. Amtrak: BROKE. Gov't employees: Nice salaries, nice pensions and plenty of paid holidays. American people: many unemployed and broke. No problem, just borrow another trillion!!!
No, I didn't care much for Bush once he transformed a rightful war against terrorism in Afghannistan into an invasion and occupation of Iraq, and then compouded it by subverting the American ideals of the rule of law with all sorts of "corner-cutting" tactics (and that's a polite way of putting it".
But, despite Bush's lawbreaking, I never called him a dictator. I never said he would destroy America.
How can we spend money to save money? Easy. Continuing what was the status quo in healthcare would have continued to bleed our economy dry. Reform WILL save us $$. If you don't agree, then take it up with the CBO; they're the ones who reviewed the legislation and concluded that the HCR bill would lower the deficit. With your "logic", JD, I guess you don't see the wisdom of the old cliche "You have to spend money to make money" either? That may SOUND illogical, but it does make sense, doesn't it>
The CBO predicted the costs of other govt programs in the past. They predicted them inaccurately. These plans always cost far more than forecasted. Why should we believe them now?
Rightwingnuts love to cite the CBO when they suppport Rightwingnut ideals. When they don't, they're stupid.
If our choices are between believing the CBO or believing rightwingnut bloggers, it's the CBO any day of the week.
