USA Today reports poll finds growing fear on health overhaul

Fears about President Barack Obama’s healthcare overhaul increased significantly in December, according to a new poll released as the legislation’s future hangs in doubt. The monthly poll from the nonpartisan Robert Wood Johnson Foundation measured consumers’ views of how a remake would affect their own finances and access to care, among other things.  The President is scheduled to deliver the 2010 State of the Union address at 9 p.m. ET tonight, as healthcare reform efforts face new challenges in Congress.
