Gallup is releasing a poll showing 49% of respondents saying that passage of health care reform was a good thing while 40% said it was a bad thing. This continues the trend in improving poll numbers for health care reform over the past couple of weeks. It also calls into question the GOP's apparent strategy to campaign on the alleged unpopularity of HCR.
Andrew Sullivan comments on the risks of this Republican strategy.
If the bill becomes more popular, what people will remember is that the GOP did all they could to kill it, and every tea-party meltdown will be in the minds of voters. Obama's genius is not attacking his opposition head-first. It is patiently assisting its self-destruction. First Clinton; then McCain; then Palin; now the GOP as a whole.
