Obamacare: ONLY 23 Per Cent Believe Health Care Costs Will Go Down If Obama’s Reforms Pass Congress

Political Cartoon by Michael Ramirez

Not a very good poll number for President Obama and his health care reform boondoggle called Obamacare.

At this time, voters are skeptical about the ability of the reform effort to help control the cost of health care. Just 23% believe passage of the reform legislation will lead to lower health care costs. Most voters (53%) say it will lead to higher costs, while 18% expect prices to remain about the same.

If President Obama believes in health care reform he will take the time to campaign for it during the August Congressional recess. I bet he will NOT and a watered down saving face reform proposal will emerge after Labor Day.

The Blue Dog Democrats can read the poll numbers and see political risk in 2010 if they deliver what Obamacare demands.
