It’s been a while since I commented on Obamacare. Given news comes out every day, nearly all of it negative, I have shown restraint. Tonight, here’s a recap of what you may have missed.
Obamacare Support at Record Low 35%
Today, December 23, a CNN poll finds Obamacare support at all-time low.
Poll Details
- 35% support the healthcare law, a 5 percentage point drop in less than a month
- 62% oppose the law, up 4 percentage points from November.
- 60% of women oppose Obamacare, up 6 percentage points from November
- 43% oppose Obamacare because it is too liberal
- 15% Oppose Obamacare because it isn’t liberal enough
- 63% believe the new law will increase what they will have to pay for medical care
- 42% believe they will be worse off under Obamacare personally.
I have gathered a huge number of Obamacare links in the past few weeks that I did not have time to comment on. Here are a few of them. This is by no means a complete list.

The final link above is interesting. The URL title is “obama-administration-secretly-extends-health-care-enrollment-deadline“.
I guess it’s not much of a secret.
Please note the political spectrum in the above links encompasses everything between the Huffington Post and Fox News. That’s quite an accomplishment!
Meltdown Coming?
