Poll: Obama health plan has slim majority support

The CNN/Opinion Research Corp. survey released Wednesday morning indicates that most people worry that their health care costs would go up if the administration's proposals passed and only one in five thinks that his or her families would be better off under the Obama plan.
Fifty-one percent of people surveyed say they favor the president's health care plan, with 45 percent opposed.
Obama aims to bring down health care costs and provide medical insurance to many of the more than 45 million Americans without coverage. His proposals, which are making their way through five congressional committees in the House and Senate, also call for a government-run health insurance program to compete with private insurers.
"Women and younger Americans are slightly more likely to support Obama's approach to health care," said CNN Polling Director Keating Holland. "Those are usually the groups that are more concerned about health care and health insurance." Continue article at original source
