Yeah, 50-55% oppose the law, but a good 15% of the public opposed it because they think it doesn't go far enough. It's why there is overwhelming support for the for provisions of the law but not the law itself. The media assumes all opponents are the tea partiers because they're most vocal, but they're wrong. <br /><br />If the Supreme Court overturns everything, the outright idiots on the left wing of the Democratic Party will go nuts. And then everybody will realize that around 60% of the public supported the core principles of the law. <br /><br />If they uphold it, the media will start reporting on the provisions. And the law will eventually be well liked because it will work.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909222850906563288.post-65980511676843933502012-06-28T05:17:59.739-07:002012-06-28T05:17:59.739-07:00Thanks, Jennifer.
