And one more thing….Unlike 2008, Obama is way behind in the polls:
Trying to impose Government Controlled Healthcare on a nation that doesn’t want it is significantly harder than running against a candidate for president who gets the nomination from the incumbent party whose leader had approval ratings in the mid to upper 20’s (and who’s base didn’t really like him).
More specifically this why Obama is going to lose, quoting from the results of this Rasmussen poll:
Should We Hike Taxes for Healthcare? 41-47 (-6)
Given a choice between health care reform and a tax hike or no health care reform and no tax hike, 47% would prefer to avoid the tax hike and do without reform. Forty-one percent (41%) take the opposite view.
Does America Believe in Hope & Change When it Comes to Healthcare? 32-54; (-22)
The opposition is stronger when asked about a choice between health care reform that would require changing existing health insurance coverage or no health care reform and no change from current coverage. In that case, voters oppose reform by a 54% to 32% margin
Should Government Even be an Option (35-50; -15)
Also, by a 50% to 35% margin, Americans oppose the creation of a government insurance company to compete with private insurers.
Is the Public Buying the Claim that Only the “Rich” Will Pay
Surveys released at the end of this past week show that 78% believe the passage of health care reform is likely to mean middle-class tax hikes.
Its not the Coverage Stupid, it’s the Cost — Addressing the Issues Surrounding HealthCare the Voters Care Least About
Sixty-one percent (61%) of voters nationwide say that cost is the biggest health care problem facing the nation today. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that just 21% believe the lack of universal health insurance coverage is a bigger problem. Only 10% believe the quality of care is the top concern, and two percent (2%) point to the inconvenience factor of dealing with the current medical system.
