I think they are ready - but nothing too bold.

Could be. I think making more disadvantaged people eligible for Medicaid could sell. And of course the expansion of SCHIP, which was vetoed IIRC. I don't think that anything bolder than that could. Not unless we were bamboozled.

>>...47% of adults continued to support the concept of providing health care for free to all Americans.

However, that support falters when people are asked to support a plan that provides coverage for all but requires everyone with insurance to “change their coverage and join a program administered by the government.” A Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey conducted October 9-10 found that just 31% of adults would support that plan.<< From the Pew report.
