Rasmussen: Conservative Anger Against Obamacare Hitting 'Stratospheric Levels'

Conservative interest in the presidential election hit “stratospheric levels” following last week’s Supreme Court ruling upholding Obamacare, noted pollster and author Scott Rasmussen tells Newsmax.TV.

“All that did was energize conservatives,” declared Rasmussen in an exclusive interview on Monday. “The conservative interest in the election was already much higher than that of moderates and liberals. It went up to really stratospheric levels right after the ruling. We don’t know if that will continue or if it’s just a temporary response to the news cycle.”

My family and my faith comfort me. I will do my best. But I may find it difficult to enjoy the 4th of July celebrations this year.

I believe that, in the end, God will remember the people who have been faithful, and visit upon the wicked what they have visited on others.

But we have to do our part. I am praying for wisdom and courage. Well said. I am right there with you.

[varon]

It isn’t temporary.

It isn’t just because of CommieCare.

It is the beginning of a Crusade to free our country from foreign "isms" and the Muslim with his sympathizers in Washington DC, the Mecca of the West!!!

No, last chance before war.

Sure do hope you are wrong; next time, it's not a North vs. South kind of thing. Think about what you are saying. I sure do hope you are wrong totally.

“an offer you can’t refuse” meets “malicious obedience” perhaps?

[Repeal The 17th]

You are in a good area up there for some big ones.

I live in Nebraska.

I’m seriously considering dragging an effigy to Ben Nelson’s place for burning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

While you’re at it, will you help the Deb Fischer campaign with your time or money? Spread the word!!!!

Take a wild guess, Raz.

Nonsense. We own SCOTUS and we can fix SCOTUS. The only thing that’s really hard to fix is us. We have to hang in there if it takes a hundred years. Like that British chap once said ...

“Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, give up. Never give up. Never give up. Never give up.”

[hinckley buzzard]

And your idea of going to war is to vote for Romney. Wow.

So, tell us, hotshot. What are you gonna do? Besides nothing?

[wardaddy]

Better than just sitting here whining....im guilty of it too

So ok

I am on record we will not sit this one out.....even though yes Romney sucks

This is by far the worst election ever to make a point

Folks here forget.....average freeper is anything but average compared to the general electorate

We slog it out here in a bit of a bubble

If only to repeal Obamacare its worth holding your nose

Some on the left don't think Obama has gone far enough but i doubt they sit it out

[chris37]

No, they didn’t.

You want to land some Higgins boats on the SCOTUS lawn?

There’s NO WAY TO CHANGE THE PRECEDENT HE SET.

I understand postive attitude and all that, and you know, it’s great.

Imagine if your best friend dies. You can have all the positive attitude you want, and that’s fine, but it doesn’t change the reality that your best friend died.

We can CHANGE OUT EVERY ELECTED REPRESENTATIVE in the house and senate, and the president, but the PRECEDENT of taxing inaction will remain.

THAT IS THE REALITY OF WHAT HAPPENED.

You missed my point. Deliberately, I suspect.

[Springfield Reformer]

Thats my read too. Time will tell.

[chris37]

He can’t even describe what kind of tax it was that he implemented, nor does it bother him that he doesn’t have the power to implement taxes, but he said don’t worry about such issues.

He is the law, and there is no way to vote him out or change anything he did, whether it was legal or not.

He is a tyrant and the tool of another tyrant, and we are their subjects.

[chris37]

Yes it is our duty, but I’m afraid that changing out the people isn’t going to be enough.

Whomever we put in there is going to have the unlimited power that Roberts just granted, and we all know what power does, and we’re about to find out what unlimited power does.

There really is only one solution to this.

[Windflier]

I’ve been trying to teach the GOP a lesson for the last 30 years. This time I wanna try teaching the democrats a lesson.

How - by voting for a guy who wears our jersey, but plays for their team? Hilarious. Dems chuckle in your general direction.

[chris37]

It is SCOTUS who owns us.

This is what happens when you empower someone to protect you...who will protect you from your protector?

[Quickgun]

That's what I'm thinking. 3rd party voters could jump off a bridge to show those Obamacare death panels something, too☺ Same difference.

[lightman]

Øbama or Øbama-white.

Øbamacare or Romneycare.

I’m writing in Palin or Santorum.
