I 100% agree with this. -- nm - TFox Mar 16, 09:05

- Nope. The reality is that this is going to be a positive improvement for the majority of people in their daily lives. They will either see little - pmb Mar 16, 09:10 4
  - Not in the immediate future though. Most won't see any change for at least two or three years, which is no help in 2010 and may be marginal in 2012. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Mar 16, 09:15 3
    - Some of the more important provisions are immediate, like removing the prior condition exemption. -- nm - nubby Mar 16, 09:20
    - Dem supporters want and need a legislative win after all this time. - Reagen Mar 16, 09:17
    - It doesn't matter. It's the fact that it passed. The log jam ends and the world doesn't end. Some things do change immediately that people think - pmb Mar 16, 09:17
- I'm almost tempted to bet you on this. - Mel Profit Mar 16, 09:09 13
  - WHo's going to change opinions on it becuase it passes? - Will Hunting Mar 16, 09:10 12
    - the far left will come back on this because...something/anything got done. - Mel Profit Mar 16, 09:18 1
      - "...and a few..." - Mel Profit Mar 16, 09:20
    - My job approval rating of him is low because it hasn't passed. If a pollster asked me to rank my approval - TWuG Mar 16, 09:14 4
      - Job approval is one thing, but the actual bill in question doesn't really get favorable marks either. -- nm - Ender Mar 16, 09:15 3
        
        Because the Dems suck at selling it. The individual parts of the bill poll very well. But the GOP has succeeded in casting the full bill as government - TWuG Mar 16, 09:19 1
        
        The benefits poll very well. The costs, mandates, taxes, and penalties... not so much. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Mar 16, 09:20
        
        Which I also think will change once something passes. -- nm - TFox Mar 16, 09:16
    - Trust me, the people who are pro healthcare reform just want to see something done. It's the nothing that has their ire up. - TFox Mar 16, 09:12 3
      - I'll say....5% bump up at most. - Will Hunting Mar 16, 09:15 2
        
        After a month? Maybe. Then give it another three. Higher. -- nm - TFox Mar 16, 09:15 1
        
        Give it 3 months and it's all about how the jobs are coming back (or not). - Will Hunting Mar 16, 09:21
    - a lot of the people critical from the left will come around on it. -- nm - Reagen Mar 16, 09:11
- every time the elements of the reform get broken out, the support from the public improves. - Reagen Mar 16, 09:07 1
  - Every time the *popular* elements get broken out, the support improves. - Dr.Vermin Mar 16, 09:17
- You think there are people approving of the job he's doing now, that will stop approving of it if health care passes? -- nm - TFox Mar 16, 09:06 4

    - I would say that lots of people who disapprove of healthcare not passing, will approve when it passes. - TFox Mar 16, 09:11 2

        No, they don't, because his efforts are getting them *nowhere*. They approve of results. Not a perceived inability to get those results. -- nm - TFox Mar 16, 09:14
