Can Republicans help Obama sell health reform?
The latest Kaiser Family Foundation tracking poll on the health care reform law is out and, as usual, it includes some intriguing findings.
Read Jonathan Cohn’s blog post here.
President Obama’s new rhetoric is starting to convince even the pickiest of voters.
“And Independents, too, now favor Obama on jobs, by 44-31, a big shift from 37-42 in September. And not only do Democrats support Obama’s jobs plan and believe it will improve the jobs situation, but so too do independents, by margins of 47-38 and 52-44, respectively. Moderates, meanwhile, are even more enthusiastic—support figures among this group are 5-9 points higher than among Independents on all these questions. As for raising taxes on the rich: Bring it on! By 65-28, Independents favor raising taxes on households with over a million dollars in income.”
