New Poll – Americans Have Had Enough With Talks Of Repealing Obamacare

The Republicans – like a squeaky, noisy wheel begging for attention – continues their ill-fated push for repealing Obamacare and replacing it with nothing. It’s all they have. The repeal call keeps their base salivating for blood, preferably from that guy in the White House.

But that’s their base. The rest of the country is seeing the importance of everyone having healthcare, and the positive effect healthcare has on the rest of the economy. The rest of the country is beginning to appreciate Obamacare.

Today’s new Kaiser Family Foundation tracking poll finds that unfavorable views of the ACA are shrinking.

The new poll finds that in March, 38 percent viewed the law favorably, versus 46 percent who saw it unfavorably. That’s a substantial narrowing from the 34-50 spread during the dark days of January, and a return almost to where opinion was in September (39-43), before the rollout disaster began.

– Support for repeal continues to shrink. Only 18 percent want to repeal the law and not replace it, while all of 11 percent want to repeal and replace it with a GOP alternative — a grand total of 29 percent. Meanwhile, 49 percent want to keep the law and improve it, and another 10 percent want to keep it as is — a total of 59 percent.

Among indys, that keep/improve versus repeal/replace spread is 52-31. Republicans are all alone here, with their spread at 31-58.

That overall keep-versus-repeal spread has improved for the law since February (when it was 56-31), and even more so since December and October, suggesting a clear trend

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
