Scott Rasmussen has released data on which party is trusted more on Healthcare. Republicans have continued their lead over democrats.
The reasons behind this shift in opinion as to which party to trust on Healthcare should be very obvious. The data shows exactly when the shift began. Once the debate centered on healthcare, all of a sudden, party preference started to shift. There has been a groundswell of support towards the republican party since mid-July.
I wonder why?
The results are in a table below. Notice the differences between the democratic and republican party support over the course of this year. The democrats were trusted more by an average of 12% for the first 6 months of 2009. Then the healthcare debate began.
Timeline : Repub / Democrat
01/11/2010 : 46.30% / 43.05%
11/24/2009 : 44.10% / 42.17%
10/18/2009 : 45.95% / 39.95%
09/07/2009 : 43.78% / 43.61%
08/08/2009 : 44.42% / 40.54%
07/07/2009 : 42.48% / 45.83%
06/06/2009 : 36.57% / 46.63%
05/08/2009 : 35.40% / 53.05%
04/10/2009 : 38.62% / 48.08%
03/09/2009 : 37.16% / 49.74%
02/09/2009 : 36.00% / 51.00%
01/12/2009 : 40.00% / 48.00%
What an incredible pattern that has appeared. Republicans are supported more than democrats on a consistent basic since August.
Amazing.

I am concerned about the Proposed Healthcare Plan. Will it have bad effects to my life? Do the benefits counterbalance the negative aspects?
