Poll: Majority prefers Dem-only bill with Public Option to bipartisan bill without oneby John Aravosis (DC) on 10/02/2009 06:08:00 PM
At some point we need to ask ourselves why any Democrats, on the Hill or the White House, are giving us a hard time on this - the numbers are in our favor, and President Obama already promised a public option - so what gives?
Which of the following scenarios do you prefer/ do you prefer?
Getting a health care bill with the choice of a strong public health insurance option to compete with private insurance plans that’s supported only by Democrats in Congress, OR Getting a health care bill with no public option that has the support of Democrats and a handful of Republicans?
Public option: 52%
No public option: 39%
