Poll: Voters support Obama, skeptical of his policies
News —
... About three-quarters of surveyed voters in Qunnipiac's latest survey, released Thursday morning, indicated they liked President Barack Obama on a personal level. But fewer than half said they approved of most of the policies he has pursued since taking office. Twenty percent said they did not look favorably on either Obama or his approach to addressing key issues. ...
Quinnipiac: Americans Like Obama, Not His Policies
The Atlantic Politics Channel —
From a Quinnipiac poll released today: Given four choices to describe their feelings about the President, American voters say: • 46 percent like Obama as a person and like most of his policies; • 28 percent like him as a person, but don't like most of his policies; • 1 percent like his policies, but don't like him as a person; • 20 percent don't like him or his policies. That's 74 percent who like Obama as a person, vs. 21 percent who don't--and 47 percent who like ...
Quinnipiac: Obamacare opposed 51-35

Quinnipiac: Obamacare opposed 51-35 posted at 11:36 am on November 19, 2009 by Ed Morrissey Share on Facebook | printer-friendly This time, it’s not Rasmussen delivering the bad news among likely voters, but Quinnipiac among registered voters — a sample that should lean more towards Obama than away from him. However, in the latest Q-poll conducted over the full week after Nancy Pelosi slammed her health-care reform bill through Congress, a majority of the 2518 respondents oppose ObamaCare. And while three-quarters of the respondents find ...
Meredith Jessup: Quinnipiac Delivers Sobering Numbers for Obama Policies
Townhall.com Blog's TownHall Blog —
The latest Quinnipiac poll shows the American public opposes Obama's health care plan by a growing margin of 51-35. I'd say this is bad news for the Democrats' agenda, but I'm afraid they don't really care what "we the people" think anymore. Three-quarters of American voters – 74 percent – like President Barack Obama as a person, but only 47 percent like most of his policies, and voters disapprove 51 – 35 percent of the health care overhaul passed by the House of Representatives which he has endorsed, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll released today. This ...
Quinippiac: Public Disapproves of ObamaCare 51-35; Disapproves of Obama's Handling of Issue, 53-41
Ace of Spades HQ —
Quinippiac: Public Disapproves of ObamaCare 51-35; Disapproves of Obama's Handling of Issue, 53-41 Not the 60% or thereabouts we need to ensure the Democrats back down. But still. [V]oters disapprove 51 - 35 percent of the health care overhaul passed by the House of Representatives which he has endorsed, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll released today. Voters disapprove 53 - 41percent of President Obama's handling of health care. The first finding they report is that voters like Obama personally, but disapprove of his policies. 74% "like" him, 47% "like" ...
So Give Him A Talk Show
JustOneMinute —
Some enterprising network should give Obama a talk show. Or maybe we could all just all invite him for dinner: We like the guy personally, it's his policies that are killing us. But why so negative? You can't blame Obama for the stimulus bill - that was the handiwork of Pelosi and Reid. The health care effort? All he has done is cheerlead for whatever Pelosi and Reid are going to drop on his desk. Can't blame Obama for the ...
Reid's 'deformed' health care reform plan
Hyscience —
... As the Post also points out, there's little wonder that the new Quinnipiac Poll shows that Americans disapprove of that plan by 51 percent to 35 percent -- with independents opposed by 2-to-1. However, the big questions are whether or not the Senate is listening and will Americans make their voices heard in time to stop the Dems deformation of our health care. ...
The Broder Strategy -- By: Robert Costa
The Corner on National Review Online —
... is speaking. His speech is interesting -- instead of just listing his complaints, he's using a new David S. Broder column from the Washington Post as his guide. Broder, McConnell notes, is no conservative.
Here's part of the column cited by McConnell:
The day after the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) gave its qualified blessing to the version of health reform produced by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, a Quinnipiac University poll of a national cross section of voters reported its latest results.
This poll may not ...

Public Opinion on the Public Option, the Opt-Out, and the Trigger
The Monkey Cage —
... on opinion toward various proposals about the public option — e.g., the option alone vs. with an opt-out provision. Last week, Quinnipiac released some new data that speaks to this question. These come from a poll of registered voters conducted from Nov. 9-16, 2009. At my request, they also supplied some additional cross-tabs, for which I am grateful. ...
Public Somewhat Indifferent to “Public Option” Concept
Matthew Yglesias —
... For example, a nationwide Quinnipiac poll conducted shortly after the House passed its bill asked: “Do you support or oppose giving people the option of being covered by a government health insurance plan that would compete with private plans?” Fifty seven percent said they supported the option, while 35 were opposed. ...
A tale of two compromises
Ezra Klein —
... Lieberman, of course, didn't compromise. He made his demands and swore a filibuster if they weren't met. No amendments to vote down, or middle ground to find. And his ransom note had very little to do with the conditions of his state. There was no extra money to dole out, or ideological chasm to bridge. Tellingly, his colleague Chris Dodd had no problem voting for the public option, and nor did any of Connecticut's representatives in the House. As recently as November, polls showed majority support for the public option in Connecticut. As recently as June, Lieberman himself ...
