McCaskill's angry constituents lambasted her for supporting a healthcare bill they overwhelmingly didn't want at townhall meetings, yet she smugly ignored them and voted in favor of it against their wishes. Why would people vote for somebody who clearly doesn't represent the majority! I trust they won't.

Obamacare adds an average of $53 billion of debt every year for the next ten years because the estimated costs have already nearly doubled. The negatives far outweigh the positives.

Hi, Sorry for the late response. I didn't get your comment until today. When I posted that, I could remember the poll but I cannot for the life of me remember it now. I do remember that the opposition was around 70-80%. And a Rasmussen poll that came today found that only 38% of people nationally want Obamacare. 56% don't. And a SurveyUSA poll monday has Akin leading McCaskill by 11 points. I hope that was enough. lol.

80% oppose it? What is your source for those poll numbers?

LOL I love it :) But we still have to take 4 more seats to have a majority in the Senate. Nebraska and Missouri are in the bag but North Dakota and Virginia are gonna be tough. Montana and Wisconsin are gonna be easier to take I think.

Excellent, you just made my morning. BTW, next time you see Claire, tell her that ObamaCare IS a tax, she'll see what a "penalty" is in november!

[BansheeGun]

She's down 11 points to Sarah Steelman. I think this supreme court decision just unseated her, given that nearly 80% Missourians oppose Obamacare. Good riddance too.

Cheap coward!!!

Screw the majority....WHAT ABOUT MINORITY RIGHTS!!! The bill was passed 5-4...that still leaves AT LEAST 44.44%. I am not moving to Canada, because the tax there is higher. I am moving to Uruguay!
