Why Republicans should be nervous about ObamaCare repeal

Now think about what’s been happening over the last few days:

The town hall protests against Obamacare repeal have continued, with Reps. Tom Reed, Jim Jordan, and Mark Sanford and Sen. Tim Scott all getting tough questions this weekend about what would happen to sick people. (And Sanford and Scott got these questions in deep-red South Carolina.)

Liberal groups are getting organized to keep the town hall protests going, including MoveOn.org and Our Revolution, Jonathan Swan reported this weekend.

More polls are showing an uptick in support for the law — this time in Iowa, where a Des Moines Register poll shows people are evenly split over whether the law is a failure or a success. (In October, six out of 10 Iowans said it was a failure.)

A smart piece this weekend by the New York Times’ Jonathan Martin notes that Republicans are seeing less intensity from Obamacare opponents than they did when President Barack Obama was in office — and they’re seeing a lot more intensity from its supporters.
