Florida: Majority Support ObamaCare Lawsuit

From SunSentinel.com:

Florida Democrats haven’t made much political headway with their attacks on Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum for joining a dozen state AGs in a lawsuit on the constitutionality of ObamaCare. In fact, just the opposite is occurring.

A recent Mason-Dixon poll has 51 percent of Floridians supporting McCollum’s court challenge, while only 39 percent oppose it. Plus, the poll has McCollum leading Democrat Alex Sink in the gubernatorial race by 49 percent to 34 percent. In the last poll, McCollum led Sink, the state’s chief financial officer, by just 6 percentage points.

The attorney generals’ challenge revolves around the10th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which states: “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.” The AGs claim that ObamaCare is an illegal assumption of power by the federal government prohibited by the amendment.
