About 60 percent believe that health care and health insurance reform in Washington will not pass; 30 percent believe that it will become law.
But surprisingly, they are not at their worst. Just after the elected Senator Scott Brown won the special election in Massachusetts for the seat of Senator Edward Kennedy, nearly 70 percent of America thought health reform was made for.
In addition, as we have blogged about before, Virginia lawmakers are close to passing a state law that prohibits a federal health insurance mandate. The problem is, the state law would not hold against federal law.
Finally, President Obama included an extension of the COBRA subsidy for workers laid off at the end of 2010. The program can certainly be considered a success and is very popular with Americans. (Premiums for COBRA coverage can be hundreds of dollars, but an individual health insurance policy can be as low as $ 50 per month.)
So many things happen to the middle of the week and we'll see what happens next.
