Yesterday, Paul Krugman:
So I keep hearing that a poll shows massive disapproval of the Massachusetts health reform. What’s being cited is a Rasmussen poll.
But here’s the thing: last year polling seemed to show very strong support for the Massachusetts plan..... I will say that Rasmussen is coming in for a lot of criticism for what looks like slanted polling.
Today, Scott Rasmussen.
Krugman must have an interesting definition of “very strong support.” The poll he cited found that just 14% want to continue the state's health care reform program, 12% want to repeal it, and 70% want to keep it but change it.
That's the highlight of a 14 paragraph response.
An economist and a pollster. Sounds like a Tommy Kirk and Dean Jones flick.
