A Washington Post-ABC News poll conducted in the three days following President Barack Obama’s speech to Congress about his health care plan found that 54% say the more they hear about the plan, the less they like it.
This particular poll result was not mentioned anywhere in the story about the poll that was posted by the Washington Post on its Web site on Monday.

The 54% who now say that the more they hear about Obama’s health-care plan, the less they like it is larger than the percentage who answered a similar question about then-First Lady Hillary Clinton’s health-care plan back in 1993 and 1994.
Jimmy Carter suspects racism is what is driving this.
It doesn't matter what the MSM and SRM say...people are looking into this for themsleves.
They are reading the plan and the words of its architect themselves and they do not like what they are finding out...and so they are rejecting it.
INDEPENDENT AMERICAN MOVEMENT FOR CONSTITUTIONAL RESTORATION
Furthermore, when conservatives criticize moonbat politicians, the moonbats receive a fair amount of sympathy from middle Americans, who believe that conservatives are mean, nasty, surly, etc. Going after the MSM does not produce the sympathetic counter-response produced by going after liberal politicians.
Actually that is what’s happening. The public has finally woken up and realized that the MSM has been feeding them a (party)line of BS, which is why nothing they report is having an effect anymore.
I don't believe the first is true. Most voters don't know who Joe Wilson is, and a majority of those who do know who he is and what he did, I suspect, think he was out of line without pondering whether he was correct. And a small minority of people double check MSM stories for themselves.
The MSM, not Obama, must be crushed. If Obama got hit by the proverbial bus this afternoon, the MSM would simply promote the next liberal politician in line.
They may be more awake today than yesterday, but the MSM (through FM radio news, TV news, and your local newspaper's news wires) still dominate the forumulation of voter's world views.
The truth doesn’t fit their story line so they spiked it.
You are right about this, opentalk. That's what they're doing...
Thanks for posting this.

Health Care is something people know intrinsically effects them and their loved ones directly. They naturally drawn to check this issue out personally more than many other issues.
So they have been downloading the Dem Health Care Plan HERE and elsewhere and educating themselves.
They have been reading the cited quotes of the main architect of the plan and Chief Advisor to Obama on Health Care HERE and elsewhere, and seeing the context of the plan from the designer of it.
...and they are not liking what they are finding and they are rejecting it.
And this despite the full court Obama-SRM presstrying to bolster support of it.
Just my opininon, but I believe as a result that 2010 is going to be a banner year for the rejection of socialistic, marxistic, and IMHO, RINO policies and candidates and I look forward to being very active in helping that happen.
Obamacare is going to work just like the rest of the 0 solution. The poor will get terrible healthcare, and everyone else will join them, except for the politicians at the top who are redistributing the healthcare. They will continue getting the kingly service they get now on the taxpayer’s dime.
