Yes. It's not perfect, but it's a giant step in the right direction. 49% (296,218 votes)

Unsure. I agree that the health insurance industry needs reform, but is this the answer? 3% (18,246 votes)

No. This is just a giant tax package wrapped in 2,700 pages stamped "health care reform." 47% (289,067 votes)

WOW, and this is coming from Foxnews? This is got to be a rigged poll because going into the vote, 55 percent of the entire population was against it and probably all conservatives were against it. What has changed?

How anyone can believe the joke of a socialist bill is good for America simply amazes me,this is not about health care rather it is about control of the people.

And your statement just goes to PROVE why any poll taken on Fox is complete BS. Of course the results are going to come out the way you expect them when the only people that watch FOX have their ideas set in stone, regardless of proof and facts.

This poll is more accurate because it more reflects the mood of the general population, not just neo-cons. Whether you like it or not, there are people that did want this to pass.

I just voted and now the NO 's are 49% and the YES 's are 47%. I suspect as more folks become aware of this poll, it will move more to the NO side. Also, many who do not like the bill as passed may just say forget it, while those who really like it will make a point to vote to show their support. This can also skew results.
