1. While it isn't the bill I would like, I would have voted for it to go to conference
and hope it was a bit improved. It isn't much reform, but it is better than the options now.

2. No
Making the Insurance companies stock go up and forcing people into the arms of these WHORES isn't my idea of Health Care Reform.

The Bill is so flawed that it makes me ill.

3. Hell no!
We could have done better but the leadership didn't have the balls to play hardball with Lieberman and company.

7. No, it is that nearly half who are responding to the poll have their own opinions about the bill.
Much of the media and Republicans would lump everyone together who opposed the bill regardless of their reasons, whether they were against any HCR at all or they didn't think the bill did enough.

6. I trust my Senator Feingold and his judgment about the bill
as well as the other progressive senators. Feingold basically said that just because the bill did not have all that he wanted he was not going to be the one to kill it because it was not perfect.

8. Of course I would have.
If the price was right. Apparently, it was.
