Obamacare Repeal Should Be Part of Any Deficit Plan

Published September 20, 2011 2:00pm ET



The latest Rasmussen poll of likely voters shows that, by a margin of 20 percentage points (56 to 36 percent), Americans support the repeal of Obamacare. This marks the first time since the spring of 2010, shortly after Obamacare’s passage, that 3-straight Rasmussen polls have shown at least 20-point margins in favor of repeal.

According to the latest poll, independents favor repeal by a margin of 21 percentage points (53 to 32 percent), with 40 percent of independents “strongly” favoring repeal and only 22 percent “strongly” opposing it. And by a margin of more than 2-to-1, independents think Obamacare would be “bad” (54 percent), rather than “good” (26 percent), for the country.
