Joseph, I just saw today an ABC news poll that 50% of people are oppossed to President Obama's health care plan. I think that that is an interesting number. Is this due to the "spin" that you are talking about or are the people of America reading the plan?
First of all, there isn't a final bill.
Second, a massive campaign of right wing lies has had an effect.
Third, a lot of the disappointment is coming from people like me who demand a public option.
No, the opponents aren't "Reading the bill". They're reading lies and disinformation.
