Something absolutely shocking happened on Monday's "Good Morning America": ABC's George Stephanopoulos told the nation that the President's healthcare address to the country Wednesday did nothing to change Americans' views about ObamaCare.
Referring to a new ABC News/Washington Post poll released moments earlier, Stephanopoulos shared numbers with host Diane Sawyer indicating the President's speech wasn't the game-changer Democrats and the Obama-loving media had hoped.
And, you can see by the expression on Stephanopoulos's face that no one was more disappointed than him (video embedded below the fold with some of the poll results, h/t Jake Tapper):
Split on Obama's handling of health care: 48-48 (46-50 August 17) Support Obama's health care reforms: 46-48 (45-50 August 17) President Obama's job approval is at 54 (57 August 17) Deficit: 65% think health care reform will make it worse Medicare: 56% of seniors think it will weaken Medicare On the crucial "what's in it for me?" question, twice as many Americans (32-16) think it will make their own care worse, twice as many (40-20) think it will increase their costs, and more than three times as many (37-11) think it will hurt their coverage.
Exit question: will other media outlets share the bad news from this poll?
nevertheless odumbo has seen a significant bump in his approval ratings per Rasmussen(it hurts even typing this)
Yes they did, look at Ras’s poll.
George Stephanopoulos = Most overrated human being. Ever.
Human?
Nervous RATs in red districts are still taking their political lives into their own hands if they vote for his "reform".
Translation: It’s a game changer.
