ONLY 23% THINK OBAMACARE A SUCCESS, 62% THINK REPEAL LIKELY
According to the latest Rasmussen poll published on April 8th, only 23% of likely American voters now rate Obamacare as a success and 62% believe Republicans will repeal the law. The latest polling results are a very bad omen for 13 incumbent Democratic Senators in seats the Republicans believe they have a chance of winning in the November 2014 mid-term elections.
The most recent poll of likely voters found only 27% strongly approve of the way Barack Obama is performing as president and 42% strongly disapprove of his performance. Although this -15% rating is historically abysmal even for a second term president, the polling for healthcare shows a greater rejection of President Obama’s “greatest accomplishment.”
An overwhelming 80% of likely voters rate the quality of their current healthcare as good or excellent. But the percentage of those same potential voters that believe the quality of health care will get worse under Obamacare increased 6% over the last month to 53%, its highest level over the last three years. Today, only 24% of potential voters predict quality will improve under Obamacare; 17% expect no change.
In the heady days of 2010 in the run up to Obamacare’s passage, many of the now vulnerable incumbent Democrat Senators promised Obamacare would save average families $2,500 per year. But 59% of likely voters now believe Obamacare will raise their personal costs for health care, while only 20% believe costs will go down and 16% believe costs will stay about the same. These polling numbers have not changed since the disastrous chaos in the Obamacare roll-out following last year’s government shutdown.
Over three quarters of likely voters believe it is now at least somewhat likely the health care law will cost more than Obama projected. Half of those voters also continue to believe Obamacare will increase the federal deficit, while only 15% still believe it will reduce the deficit and 20% believe it will have negligible budgetary costs.
The public in 2010 seemed willing to accept that the federal government should mandate every American must buy or obtain health insurance. But today only 40% of likely voters agree with an “individual mandate” and 46% disagree with any mandate.

Re: 27% or 23%
yet, just last week, an unbiased outlet(Rasmussen leans right and has a wretched track record in election polling) cited the following(Gallup/NPR source polling):
46% support for the ACA. 83% either wish to just keep it or fix aspects, only 17% wish it gone and over 65% would vote for someone running to fix it versus a candidate calling for repeal.

So that there "bold" part means?If 7 million is a correct number of website visitors/applicants?
And our population here is approx. 300 million?
Then 83% of the 2% population "signed up" want to keep/fix it. That's just fucking overwhelming....
See my thread about yer britches.....for a "heads up".
