Opinions about Obamacare are improving even in congressional districts held by Republicans, according to a new poll.

But opponents of the Affordable Care Act in those districts still outnumber those in favor of the law.

The poll may draw fire from Republicans since it was conducted by a Democratic firm, Democracy Corps. The firm did not comment about how Republicans might view the results, and a representative said there would be a call to discuss the poll Monday afternoon.

But attitudes about President Barack Obama’s signature health law are changing, according to the poll, which was shared in advance with the Huffington Post. The poll finds 43% of respondents in districts held by a GOP member of Congress say they oppose the health law because it “goes too far.” That’s down five points from December.

This is the same “cBS marketwatch” who keeps touting “thousands of jobs” in the L.A. market in their radio ads it’s both hilarious and vomit-worthy. There are no more jobs here in L.A.

We need to know the precise questions the poll asked. And if the poll was conducted by telephone if answering machines counted as support for constitutionally indefensible Obamacare Democratcare.

And we'll probably never hear a Democratcare poll asking participants if they were aware that the states had never delegated to Congress, via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for public healthcare purposes.

Thanks Oldeconomybuyer. As my elder and mentor used to say, “not by a jug o’ ####.”
