Rasmussen: Opposition to ObamaCare Reaches New High

58% are opposed, with only 39% supporting the President's attempt to cripple America's healthcare system.

While several individual components of the plan are popular, reminding voters of what’s included in the plan has virtually no impact on support for the overall legislation. This suggests that there are not major surprises in the legislation that will cause people to change their opinion of it.

[...]

The new figures include 19% who Strongly Favor the plan and 46% who Strongly Oppose it.

This poll is particularly useful as a snapshot of who these crazy folks are who want a healthcare bill no matter what's in it:

It is interesting to note that attitudes towards the plan vary sharply based upon what people see as the primary problem with health care today. Fifty-three percent (53%) say cost is the biggest problem while 23% cite the lack of universal coverage and 13% name the quality of care.

Among those who see the lack of universal coverage as the biggest problem, 86% favor the legislation.

However, among the majority who see cost as the biggest issue, 68% are opposed.

As for those who see the quality of care as the top issue, 87% are opposed to the plan before Congress.

The universal coverage folks are kidding themselves if they think an individual mandate will result in healthcare for every American. Many will continue to go without and there's little difference between foregoing treatment because you have no insurance and foregoing treatment because a government deathpanel won't let your insurer cover it.
