ObamaCare Continues To Lose Support

by Doug Mataconis @ 1:25 pm on August 11, 2009. Filed under Barack Obama, Health Care Reform, Politics

The latest Rasmussen Poll shows clearly that the White House is losing the public relations war over health care reform:

Public support for the health care reform plan proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats has fallen to a new low as just 42% of U.S. voters now favor the plan. That’s down five points from two weeks ago and down eight points from six weeks ago.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that opposition to the plan has increased to 53%, up nine points since late June.

More significantly, 44% of voters strongly oppose the health care reform effort versus 26% who strongly favor it. Intensity has been stronger among opponents of the plan since the debate began.

While it’s still possible that some form of health care/insurance reform will pass this year, numbers like this would seem to make it much less likely that it will be happen, or that, if it does, it will be anything resembling the bill presently before Congress.
