CNN poll: Majority now oppose ObamaCare
Hot Air ^ | Sept. 2, 2009 | Allahpundit

48/51, with most of those in opposition “strongly” against it.

The crosstabs are full of goodies — e.g., just 21 percent think their family will be better off under ObamaCare, 55 percent think they’ll pay more for treatment versus just 19 percent who say less — but here’s my favorite data point.

He’s been swearing up and down for months that he’s not after a government takeover of health care, and this is what he gets.

Likewise, after assuring us ad nauseam that seniors won’t lose any Medicare benefits, the split found by CNN on whether Medicare recipients will likely be better off or worse off under ObamaCare is … 26/43.

The guy’s credibility is shot. And yet, as I write this, news is breaking that he’s planning to address a joint session of Congress a week from today, on the dopey theory that one more chorus of “if you like your plan, you can keep your plan” will somehow rally an increasingly skeptical public to his side.

We don’t believe you anymore, Barry: Too many out-and-out lies about the numbers, too much doublespeak from prominent Democrats about the public option as a trojan horse for single-payer — just “too much bulls**t” generally, as one attendee at Steny Hoyer’s town hall put it.

No wonder the Democrats’ huge lead in party affiliation has collapsed since May.

“The guy’s credibility is shot.”

There is video of him declaring his unwavering support for single payer/givernment run health care so now when that is not popular, he’s not for it as much. He is blatantly lying right to our faces and America is not buying it!

No sh__t?? You don’t meant it!

Even CNN, with their worthless polling system, has had to concede reality.

Wake up call, folks. This is not as bad as it should be for the Administration.

Think about it. 48 some odd percent of people still think that nutty commie health care destroying agenda is a good idea????

CNN knows that there are plenty of swing voters out there. And as soon as dems fires something up and get just one good day of polling, people will get quoted as liking his plan. And thent he wishy washy swing voters will turn right around and say they like it too. Because they have no idea what the hell they are looking at, they just want to be accepted at the water cooler.

A steadfast, growing, purposeful, committed opposition to the destruction Obama and those who support him are causing has formed. Against him and the assinine foolishness associated with trying to transform this nation into a marxist construct, something that has proven to be so abjectly disasterous and failing everytime it has been tried in history. The Health Care issue has turned over this ant hill, and now it is being reflected in all of the polls.

Obama, the DNC, the far left and the MSM all fear this rising opposition and are finding they are incapable of controlling it or its spread. That is why they are desperately trying to demonize and categorizing traditional Americans. But the slumbering giant has stirred, and he is waking up hopping mad.

And the more they do that the further they fall. There is something about truth that usually wins in the long run. It funny how that works
