The polls seem to support repeal.

NBC News/WSJ - Repeal Acceptable 51%
Bloomberg - Is should be repealed 47% (vs 42% it shouldn't)
CNN/ORC - Repeal and Replace 47% (next highest answer make changes 26%)
Fox News - Favor Repeal 46% (Oppose 42%)
CBS/NYT - Repeal 40% (next highest answer support 37%)

5 Polls with repeal as a plurality or majority vs three opposing repeal. For the polls after Sept 20th its 4 for repeal, 1 against. For those in October its 1 for repeal vs zero against.

Then you have Rasmussen showing 30 states support repeal (26 strongly so) vs 2 that don't.

The current analysis suggests that many, if not most, of these Americans would not be upset if Congress were able to repeal the new health reform law

Many not most.

It also shows that many (and NBC/WSJ and Rasmussen suggest it might be most, even if none of the others do) would be upset if the law wasn't repealed.

"If offered an option of saying it would be best to first give the law a chance to work, some in the opposition camp would likely choose that option over immediate repeal."

But still leaving a majority or plurality supporting repeal in a majority of the polls, and a strong majority of the very recent ones.
