Approval Rating Hits 53% as Health Plan Loses Public Support

WASHINGTON -- Support for President Barack Obama's health-care effort slipped substantially over the past five weeks -- particularly among those who already have insurance -- as Congress has struggled to finalize legislation and attention has focused on its high price, a new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll finds.

In a bid to regain momentum, Mr. Obama is shifting the way he is selling his top domestic priority, focusing less on how the revamp would reduce costs and more on how it would protect those who already have insurance -- the people who need to be won over. One of the president's top advisers acknowledged Wednesday that the White House's prior focus had been unsuccessful.
