Survey results of especial interest:
“30. From what you have heard about Barack Obama’s health care plan, do you think his plan is a good idea or a bad idea? If you do not have an opinion either way, please just say so.
33% – Good idea
46% – Bad idea
18% – Do not have an opinion
3% – Not sure
“32. Thinking about efforts to reform the health care system, which would concern you more?
40% – Not doing enough to make the health care system better than it is now by lowering costs and covering the uninsured.
53% – Going too far and making the health care system worse than it is now in terms of quality of care and choice of doctor.
7% – Not sure”
WATCHDOG: Again, whether liberal or conservative, people are not happy with the proposed health care legislation. Attempts at conciliation and consensus building have alienated much of the public.
