An important finding

A couple weeks ago I wrote that among poll respondents who approved of Barack Obama's job performance support for him on health care was only in the 70s. At the same time opposition to it ran from 95% on up.

The latter fact hasn't changed. But 88% of Obama fans said they approved of his health care plan on the SC-2 poll. That's nine points higher than anywhere else we polled on it recently. We'll see if New Jersey holds up that trend, but if it's real then the enthusiasm gap we've been seeing between Democrats and Republicans on this issue could be a thing of the past.

  1. Umm, it might have something to do with the huge black population among South Carolina Democrats.
