Ted Cruz's Facebook Poll on Obamacare


Sen. Ted Cruz has unintentionally generated lots of Facebook love for Obamacare.
The Texas Republican recently did his own little poll about Obamacare on Facebook, asking whether the health law has improved people’s lives. By the thousands, people told him it had.

“Quick poll: Obamacare was signed into law four years ago yesterday. Are you better off now than you were then? Comment with YES or NO!,” says the poll he put up on March 24.


The post has generated more than 55,700 comments — and they probably weren’t what Cruz, who staged that memorable overnight filibuster-like rant against the law on the Senate floor last summer, was expecting.
They said things like: “Not only am I better off, but I have friends that are better off.”
Or, “Yes I have MS and I lost my job I wouldn’t be able to get any other insurance because of my pre existing condition thank you President Obama.”
And, “This nation is better off for helping folks avoid the devastation that poor health can bring. Thank you, ACA!”
(QUIZ: Do you know Ted Cruz?)
In the most recent 100 comments, just two appeared more negative than positive. And many bash Cruz for his role in shutting down the government over Obamacare.
