Poll: Independent Voters Back Anti-Obamacare Candidates By 25 Points
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | April 21, 2014 | Wynton Hall

A devastating new poll finds that Independent voters overwhelmingly back candidates who oppose Obamacare by a 25% margin (54% to 29%).

The Fox News poll, released on Monday, also found that the general electorate backs anti-Obamacare candidates by 14% (53% to 39%).

Nearly one in five voters (19%) said a congressional candidate's position on Obamacare will be the "single most important factor" driving their voting decision.

A full 51% of those polled said 20 years from now Obamacare will be seen as "one of the worst" things President Barack Obama did as president, a sentiment with which even one in five Democrats agreed. Just 37% said Obamacare will be seen as "one of the best" things Obama accomplished.

If this sentiment is wide, then GOP will win statewide voters in Senate races. If sentiment is sustained it may lead to a nationwide trend and GOP can win the POTUS in 2016. Most House seats are gerrymander to support incumbent. IMHO GOP will pick up some more seats, but the Senate is definitely in play if sentiment breakdown on Obamacare is state wide in most states.

If this trend is true and holds through the summer, I shudder to think what depths Obama and the dems will sink to in the attempt to fire up their base to vote in November.

You mean like insurrection, cutting off the EBT cards and blaming it on the GOP/Tea Party, false flag operations and that sort of thing?

“one of the worst” things President Barack Obama did as president”

And, that’s why we must ALWAYS refer to it by it’s proper name: OBAMACARE. Never mind that “ACA” is faster to type, it’s important that this POS now and forevermore bear the name of the Incompetent, Inexperienced, Over-his-head Marxist Slacker Mack-Daddy whose only accomplishment will be remember in history as having nudged James Buchanan out as being the Worst President Ever.

Well I would hope so since most Indies now are disaffected Tea Partiers and other Conservatives who loathe the whole lot. I’m an Indie but I’m sure not voting pro-ODimwit care.

I wish these “experts” would examine polls in depth.
