Poll: 64% Of Americans Say Obamacare Should Remain Law

DYLAN SCOTT – MARCH 13, 2014, 12:08 PM EDT

A substantial majority of Americans believe Obamacare should remain law, either exactly as it is or with small changes, according to a new poll.

Bloomberg News found that a combined 64 percent of Americans said they support keeping the law in place. That includes 51 percent who said it should be kept but may need some small changes and 13 percent who said it should be left alone. Only 34 percent said it should be repealed.

Obamacare is also likely to weigh on people's minds when they vote this November: 52 percent said the law would be a major factor in their decision, and 20 percent said it would be a minor factor.

The Bloomberg poll didn't ask how it would affect people's votes. An NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll found that the law was currently a wash between the two parties for the 2014 elections. Bloomberg News surveyed 1,001 U.S. adults from March 7 to 10. The poll's margin of error is 3.1 percentage points.

Only 13% want the law as is.  I'm curious how the question was asked.

The headline could have easily read 47% have problems with the healthcare law.

I'm curious as to what changes they would make and their level of understanding of the law.

Please don't let that stop you from offering your opinions, though.

Actually, how about you include some stories from when you lived in the Bronx? 

Anything interesting happen there?  You could rip on Obama and tell your stories in installments. 

I would read that -- you're not too bad at ranting.

And when it didn't occur it sent him into hiding for a week melting down in PMs.

Without the Barack the Magic Negro (Rev al name) at the top of the ticket promising free stuff to everyone - the zombies typically don't shot up like they do in presidential years.  Milleniels are also not going to show up in a mid term for the commie party. What for?
