The writer of this piece makes the interesting observation that there was perhaps only a slight erosion of obamacare support until just a little over a week ago, when the trends broke. Then he goes on to note the following:
” . . . a plurality of the public — 41 percent — expects that ObamaCare will have no impact on them or their family.”
That 41% will be hit by obamacare very soon.
I also think that we may see another shift after Thanksgiving. Millions of American families are going to come together for a pleasant meal together, with varying degrees of thankfulness the normal expectation. But I predict that obamacare is going to be the number one topic around the “Thanksgiving” table, and some of that 41% are going to feel like vomiting when the truth sinks in. In most families there will already be someone who is experiencing the effects of obamacare. Their personal comments will sway at least some LIVs who have been deluded until now.
“Millions of American families are going to come together for a pleasant meal together, with varying degrees of thankfulness the normal expectation. But I predict that obamacare is going to be the number one topic around the “Thanksgiving” table,”
I hope you are correct, but I’m quite skeptical.
On another thread today another mentioned many Americans are apolitical, not interested or involved in politics. I fully agree. Couple that with many families having obama loving Millennials or outright leftist loons, many will not want to disrupt a family event by starting such a conversation.
