American Thinker Blog: Support for Obamacare still tanking: "President Obama made a big deal earlier this week about the falling approval in the polls for Obamacare. 'It was only passed a week ago,' he mocked.
That may be true, Mr. President. But please to tell us when your promise that those numbers will turn around may begin? By the time they do, you, Bo the dog, and maybe Nancy Pelosi will be the only ones who still think it's a great idea.
To wit: A CBS poll showing that the public is growing more skeptical, not less, of Obamacare:
Fifty-three percent of Americans say they disapprove of the new reforms, including 39 percent who say they disapprove strongly. In the days before the bill passed the House, 37 percent said they approved and 48 percent disapproved.
Republicans and independents remain opposed to the reforms, and support has dropped some among Democrats. Now 52 percent of Democrats approve of the new reforms, a drop from 60 percent just before the bill was passed by Congress...
Even though the president and Democratic leaders have repeatedly pointed out that the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office called the reform package a deficit-reducer, six in 10 Americans still think the new health care reforms will increase the budget deficit.
