Sweet Sixteen

After more than a month’s worth of polling, this much is clear:  Americans want Obamacare to be repealed, and they’ll reward the political party that strongly champions that cause.  Over the five-week span since the Democrats passed Obamacare, which they did so in clear and open defiance of the American people’s will, Rasmussen’s poll of likely voters has shown that Americans favor repeal by 16 points (56 to 40 percent) —more than twice the margin by which President Obama was elected.  These results have been remarkably consistent, varying by only two points in either direction (with 54 to 58 percent supporting repeal, and 38 to 42 percent opposing it).  In this week’s poll, Americans favor repeal by a full 20 points (58 to 38 percent).
