(V): It's not surprising that a high percentage of Democrats favor his "plan." And it's true that he's clarified some of his ideas in his speech (which I DID watch in full). Still, there are many unanswered question. But back to your original claim. You suggested that people ought not to be surprised with what Obama is doing as president because they knew of these things since he explained them in his campaign. It's your assertion that's in dispute and others have said you were wrong in your analysis. Obama didn't clarify anything in his pre-election speeches. Few knew what he stood for. It's becoming clear now that Obama wants to fundamentally change America. That's why people are going crazy. The budget experts are telling us (the people) that Obama's plans will only raise taxes and increase the deficit by billions (if not trillions). There's no other way it can be paid for. Obama can't explain how this will all work other than to speak in generalities and ambiguities.
BTW, the polls show him losing ground, not gaining it.
