To the extent voters are following the Democrats’ frantic efforts to bribe or threaten the last three or four Congressmen into voting for government medicine, they remain unimpressed. Rasmussen finds that likely voters oppose the plan by 53-43 percent. These numbers have held remarkably steady since around Thanksgiving.
The Democrats seem to have given up on trying to persuade voters to see the issue their way, and have fallen back on the equivalent of “Try it, you’ll like it.” Which seems odd: aren’t tax increases just about the only provisions of Obamacare that will be visible to voters during the first few years?
