Even as President Obama throttles down, trying to ram the presidential limo through the public opinion blockade erected by a huge majority of the people, the barricade is growing. A new CNN poll finds that only 25% of those polled want Obamacare to pass. That’s a debacle for a man elected to be a persuasive star, helped along by thuggery and back room deals from Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Reid. The result is abysmal any way you look at it. From the poll:
Feb. 12-15/ 2010
Pass similar bill 25%
Start work on new bill 48%
Stop working on health care 25%
Obama has become a mediocre president pushing an unpopular bill down the throats of an unwilling people. Not exactly the way to become that transformational figure everyone was talking about.
