A new CBS News poll finds that “health care tops the list of most important issue for voters, ahead of the economy — and by two to one voters say they’ve been hurt, not helped, by the GOP’s changes to the health care laws.

“Few Americans — only 15% — feel that the recent changes to health care laws made by Republicans have helped them and their family.”

1. That's too bad, it is like saying your biggest problem is which pair of pants to wear

when running out of a house on fire.
Wont be health care or environment or jobs if Russian oligarchs take over

2. Both of these should be what the Dems campaign on.

I have been saying it for months. ALL voters from both parties care about this and the tax scam. If we can stick with these issues and not the 2nd Amend or abortion as well as the candidates' local issues we will win. I think Pelosi is on the right track, encouraging Dems to avoid talking about impeachment and ignore the nasty things that the GOP is saying about her as a leader.

3. 15% is a disastrous number for the GOP.

Dems needs to remind Americans that Trump isn't the only piece of shit in town.

4. While HCare is an issue, I suspect a lot with an issue still oppose Ocare.

That really doesn’t help Democrats.

In fact if you read the article, 15% said GOPers have improved HC. But 50% said they don’t see any difference. To me that means it’s really not a big issue that a Democratic solution will necessarily attract votes. I wish it were so, but I don’t think some people understand just how stupid white wingers are. They’ll let their poor mother die for lack of affordable HC to keep from giving poor people help.
