A Major Election Issue Not Being Talked About: ObamaCare

As a result of reelecting Barack Obama and maintaining the status quo in Congress, ObamaCare was assured of "not" being repealed or even modified.  It will go ahead, as is, and all the negatives of that law will be fully implemented before we ever see another presidential election.  This was the big loss for Americans since most oppose the law.  The average of the Real Clear Politics polling on this shows that Americans reject the law 48.6% to 41.4%.  Even the left-leaning, CBS/New York Times polling has opposition at 50%; and, support at only 42%.   And, that poll was heavily weighted towards Democrats. Rasmussen's last poll, in late October, had opposition at 54%; and, that's a whopping 15 percentage points higher than those who favored the law.  Even the exit polling after Tuesday's reelection showed that the voters opposed ObamaCare, 49% to 44%.

Without the stopping of ObamaCare with a Romney win, it will now continue on its path to destroying our current system and setting the stage for an eventual single-payer, government health care system.  Eventually, just as in Britain, we will wind up with a similar problem-ridden and health-care-delayed system that will just continue to push America into debt and jeopardize people's lives.
