3 Day Bounce over....Support for Health Care Plan Falls Back To Pre-Speech Levels

(Rasmussenreports).Following President Obama’s speech to Congress last week, support for his health care reform plan increased steadily to a peak of 51% yesterday. However, the bounce appears to be over. The latest daily tracking shows that support has fallen all the way back to pre-speech levels.

Forty-five percent (45%) of all voters nationwide now favor the plan while 52% are opposed. A week ago, 44% supported the proposal and 53% were opposed.

Overall, 50% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President's performance. Yesterday, the President’s numbers reached a two-month high at 52%. Today’s overall approval is the same as it was just before the President’s speech last week. Fifty percent (50%) now disapprove.
