LOL - Fixed News Poll: Florida voters more afraid of Obama's Medicare plan than Ryan's

[IDemo]

Florida voters are more afraid of President Obama's health care overhaul than Paul Ryan's budget plan when it comes to Medicare's future, according to a Rasmussen Reports poll released Thursday.

The poll of 500 likely Florida voters asked which plan "scares" them more.

Forty-eight percent chose the health care law. Forty-one percent chose Ryan's plan - while 11 percent weren't sure.

The results come as both campaigns elevate the issue of Medicare in their ads, interviews and stump speeches -- particularly in Florida, with its large senior population. Ryan is the author of the controversial budget plan that would, 10 years from now, give seniors the option of using a government payment to buy private insurance. Obama's campaign says the plan would "end Medicare as we know it."

Likely poll question: Do you agree that Obama is just plain scarey?

Edit - actually a Rasmussen poll, not Fixed.

1. Likely wording: Are you scared of Obamacare? Or Ryan's Medicare Vouchers?

2. Don't forget these folks will never be affected by the voucher plan

Selfish geezers.

My elderly folks are paying *far less* for their multitude of prescriptions this year thanks to the ACA ending the donut hole! We need a loud ad campaign pointing out that fact to seniors: the Repugs want to repeal the ACA so welcome back, donut hole! Huge lie that the Ryan plan won't affect the over 65 crowd now.
