The Democrats have several Plan Bs for the health bill, none of which they regard as satisfactory. One was to vote on the bill before Brown takes up his seat but Jim Webb, a Democratic senator, appeared to block that last night by saying the election had been both about healthcare and the integrity of the government process. > What polls...every single poll showed overwhelming support...well except the > cherry picked ones done by Fox maybe... Here's a cherry: http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/current_events/healt hcare/march_2010/57_predict_health_care_plan_will_hurt_the_economy While the president and his congressional allies search for a way to pass their proposed health care plan, most voters remain opposed to it. Forty-two percent (42%) now favor the plan, while 53% are against it, findings that have remained relatively constant since just after Thanksgiving. The new figures include just 20% who Strongly Favor the plan and 41% who are Strongly Opposed. ... Sixty percent (60%) of voters believe Democrats should change the bill to win support from a reasonable number of Republicans. Only 31% believe Democrats should go ahead and pass the bill without Republican support. Views of the country's short- and long-term economic future are gloomier these days than they have been at any time since Obama took office in January of last year. Of the four budget priorities laid out by Obama at the start of his presidency, cutting the federal deficit in half by the end of his first term is still the one voters put in first place. Only 21% of voters nationwide believe the federal government now enjoys the consent of the governed. Seventy-five percent (75%) are at least somewhat angry at the government's current policies. That includes 45% who are Very Angry, a nine-point increase since September.
