Dems got hold of it.
From Gallup December 4, 2008:
Most Americans -- 89% of adults aged 18 and older surveyed by Gallup in November -- report that they are currently covered by private health insurance, or a federal program such as Medicare or Medicaid. Only 11% say they have no health insurance.
And among all Americans, 83% say the quality of healthcare they receive is either "excellent" or "good." Only 16% say it's either "only fair" or "poor."
Americans are only a bit less positive about their own healthcare coverage, with 67% describing the coverage they now have as excellent or good.
Despite the persistent inflation in healthcare costs, 58% of Americans are satisfied with the total cost they pay for their healthcare, a percentage that has been consistent in recent years. This could be, in part, because four in five Americans with private health insurance say their employer either shares or pays all of the costs of their premiums.
