Whit Ayres’ comments on Morning Edition regarding ObamaCare:
The message challenge for the White House has been and remains very significant. The president made a lot of promises about his healthcare plan that, according to our polling, most Americans never believed. They never believed that the plan would lower health insurance premiums for the average family by $2,500 a year, that the plan would not add one dime to the federal deficit.
The one promise they did believe is that if you like your current plan, you can keep it. And now they’re finding out that not even that is true and they’re feeling betrayed. I think the jury is still out about the individual impact on this law, but I think it’s going to be negative.
