Although the House passed a health care reform bill this past weekend, most Americans continue to oppose the legislation.

Over the weekend, Democratic leaders spoke of an historic moment as health care reform legislation passed the House of Representatives. But that legislative victory failed to significantly move public opinion.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 45% now favor the health care plan proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats. Most (52%) remain opposed.

Only 25% Strongly Support the plan while 42% are Strongly Opposed.

Support for the plan has remained essentially unchanged for months.

The House bill which was passed by a few votes is going nowhere in the U.S. Senate and I doubt the Senate will be able to pass ANY comprehensive bill this year or next.

If the Congress wants to pass ANY reform legislation, they will have to start over and begin an incremental reform with bipartisanship.

Think this will happen?

Doubtful…..
