    Actually, you get your wish. We have a presidential election coming up in just a few months. Maybe you haven't heard about it. 8^)

    As for the 'govt. takeover' of health care, are you not just repeating a phrase you've had drummed into your head by Fox News and Rush Limbaugh?

    As for opposition to Obamacare, yes you can probably count a majority of Americans as being against Obamacare, but you're adding together the people who thought it went too far with those who thought it didn't go far enough. Personally, I was hoping for the Public Option.

    60-70% of Americans favor SINGLE PAYER. A defeat of Obamacare would only have brought Single Payer that much closer.

    You act as if healthcare is the only issue voters care about. Also, I guarantee you lots more people will support the Affordable Care Act after the ruling today.

    We are and Obama will win. He is leading in the polls and will get over 270 electoral delegates. If healthcare were the only issue then maybe he might lose but I think gays, latinos, women and anybody that might get sick in their life or has kids and are not rich might want to vote for Obama or at least consider it.

    There will be election in november, but you will be disappointed if you think Republicans will get 65% of the votes. about half of the 65% who do not like Obama care want health care plan like Canada instead.

    They are in luck! Obamacare is not a government takeover of our health care. It is just new rules for how health care is provided in order to ensure comprehensive care for reasonable cost. Most health care services will still be conducted by private sector organizations.

    Lol, "Government takeover". Phrases like that just tell us how uninformed the opposition truly is, still repeating 2010's Lie of the Year.

    Exactly. That's why I'm not overly upset right now. People do vote and the liberal regime will be voted out this Nov.
