Poll: Opposition to Obamacare Reaches New High

Nearly 6 in 10 Americans now oppose President Obama’s signature legislative achievement, according to a Fox News poll.

The new poll finds 59 percent of voters oppose the health care law, up from 55 percent who opposed it six months ago (June 2013).  The increase in opposition comes from both independents and Democrats.

Nearly a third of Democrats — 30 percent — oppose the law, up from 22 percent in June.

Opposition among independents went from 53 percent to 64 percent today.

Overall, 36 percent of voters favor the new health care law.  That’s down from 40 percent in June and marks a new low.

But Obama’s response to criticisms of the law amount to “It’s the law, so deal with it.” Even when it is costing millions of Americans their healthcare.
