Ann H Commented on Poll: Majority Disapprove of Obama's Performance On Health Care by Eric Kleefeld

2009-09-09T17:58:47Z

I wouldn't take the poll numbers too seriously. I feel quite certain that a big chunk of people who disapprove are from the left -- saying he hasn't shown enough leadership, pushed enough. A much more relevant question would be, do you trust the Dems or the Reps more?

I think Obama needs to look strong, get something decent (not perfect) to sign, and things will start to improve politically.

Ann H Commented on IWF: Women Will "Die of Breast Cancer" if You "Surrender" to Obama's Plan by Brian Beutler

2009-08-25T22:37:54Z

What is really really sick about this is that women are dying every day of breast cancer because they don't have health insurance and can't get any care.

But those aren't "People you and I know." So they don't count.

Ann H Commented on Poll: Americans Overwhelmingly Favor Universal Health Care -- Until Taxes Are Mentioned by Eric Kleefeld

2009-05-30T01:55:47Z

I believe until recently that Americans favored universal coverage even if it raised their taxes; this new poll may be a reflection of the recession. And 47-47 ain't bad -- remember, that's half the people saying, yeah, this is the right thing to do, go ahead and raise my taxes.

Ann H Commented on Obama's Big Health Announcement by Matthew Cooper

2009-03-02T19:17:05Z

Matt, when you say that Obama is currently fighting on unfriendly terrain, ie, that health care is currently viewed as a nicety, not as part of the solution to our economic situation, do you have some poll numbers or other evidence to point to in order to back that up? Or is it just conventional inside-the-beltway "wisdom"? Seems to me lots of people are hurting and that times are ripe for something big, both in terms of individual attitudes and corporate outlook. I admit I have only anecdotal back-up for this; have you got something better for your assertion? (and I mean this very politely, not trying to be snarky here, just looking for data!)
