Republican Congresswoman Marsha Blackburn's Obamacare Twitter Poll Backfires

A Twitter poll by ardent Obamacare foe Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., on whether the health-care law should be repealed backfired big-time Wednesday as lots more people — a whole lot more people — tweeted "No," rather than "Yes."

Blackburn posted the poll Tuesday, asking people their views on repeal, and requesting that they retweet their support for killing Obamacare if they favored repeal.

Let's try.

'The American People that want Obamacare repealed are 100% for repealing it.'

See what I did?
