Hey, you know opposes the government-run health care legislation that will now head to the president’s desk for signature? The American people. Yeah, ” we the people”….not such big fans.

Washington (CNN) – A majority of Americans have a dim view of the sweeping health care bill passed by the House, saying it gives Washington too much clout and won’t do much to reduce their own health care costs or federal deficits, according to a new poll released Monday.

A CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll found that 59 percent of those surveyed opposed the bill, and 39 percent favored it. All of the interviews were conducted before the House voted Sunday night, but the contents of the bill were widely known.

But wait. There’s more:

In addition, 56 percent said the bill gives the government too much involvement in health care; 28 percent said it gives the government the proper role and 16 percent said it leaves Washington with an inadequate role.

On the question of costs, 62 percent said the bill increases the amount of money they personally spend on health care; 21 percent said their costs would remain the same and 16 percent said they would decrease.

The poll’s results about the bill’s fiscal impact were particularly stark: 70 percent of respondents said they believed deficits would go up because of the bill; 17 percent felt they would stay the same and 12 percent said they would go down.

Especially note the second paragraph. The main sell for ObamaCare? That the legislation will decrease costs for Americans. And yet here’s a CNN poll, the day after the vote, finding that just 16% of Americans believe that.

And the second biggest sell? That deficits will go down. 70% of Americans — obviously quite a bit more than just Republicans — don’t believe that crap either.

November’s not looking so bright for Democrats.
