Ryan is going to lose Florida for them. I think the pubs have underestimated just how informed those Florida seniors are....and "mom" can't fix that.

In senior circles, Ryan is the guy who called AARP a leftist organization.

Yeah... so informed they hate Obama's plan even more - LOL yourself... hahahaha. nm

Three simple steps. - Google time.

1. Search AARP Affordable Care Act; AARP ACA Medicare; ARRP Ryan budget cuts to Medicare.

2. Sift through the bounty of articles, or simply click on their convenient fact sheets, embedded in the reports.

3. Get back with us and we'll discuss bogus nature of this poll.

Obama already robbed Medicare... fact!.. - Doctors already dumping patients... fact!! nm

Aww come on, you know "facts" of any type - send the dems into a tailspin

[ In Reply To ..]
And we know how they love to spin!

Also watched an economist today that said 1/6 hospitals treating high volume of Medicare patients will be closing within 2-3 years because the cuts to Medicare are so deep, they cannot meet their bills with Medicare patients. Pushing all these people on Medicaid no better. Also said that 4 million Medicare patients are loosing Medicare Advantage because of Obamacare - FACT

Yeah...Obamacare is a real benefit to seniors.

Do you think there's a difference between "fact" - and "mostly false"?

eligible for Medicare. It has turned out being 7% more expensive than traditional Medicare.

A little more info:
Although Medicare benefits are supplied to senior citizens by the federal government, Medicare Advantage plans are offered by private insurers in lieu of Medicare. Medicare pays a monthly fee to insurers for managing the policies, and the insurers charge monthly premiums to beneficiaries, depending on the coverage being offered.

Many Medicare Advantage plans advertise that they offer more or better benefits than standard Medicare coverage, but the Medicare Rights Center has identified nine common complaints about Medicare Advantage insurance:

Most Medicare Advantage plans are similar to HMOs or PPOs because they limit seniors in their choice of doctors, hospitals and nursing facilities.
If a doctor leaves the plan or is dropped from the plan, the continuity of patient care is broken.
Private insurance is less stable than government benefits and seniors may suddenly find themselves temporarily without medical insurance.
It is more difficult to receive emergency or urgent care under many Medicare Advantage plans.
Finding covered medical care while traveling may be difficult.
The additional benefits offered may actually be less than what was originally promised by the Medicare Advantage provider.
Seniors with Medicare Advantage plans must follow the rules of the plan in order for medical care to be covered.
The patient costs of Medicare Advantage plans may be higher than those of combined Medicare and Medigap coverage.
Indigent seniors may have higher costs under Medicare Advantage plans than they would under combined Medicare and Medicaid coverage.
Before choosing a Medicare Advantage plan, you should check the reputation of the company offering the plan with the Medicare Rights Center and your state department of insurance.

In many cases, you may receive better medical coverage at a lower cost with a combination of Medicare and Medigap supplemental insurance than with Medicare Advantage plans. The combination of Medicare and Medigap covers most costs of a major medical crisis, while allowing you to continue seeing the same doctor and often covering access to emergency care and medical care while traveling.

BTDT all this past week. - Voters know the difference

between slowing growth, cutting out fraud and waste, and recycling savings back back into cost cutting for medical services. They also understand the Ryan and Obama target numbers are one in the same, with one huge difference. Ryan plans to direct the money into the pockets of the big 10, who posted record profits last year and the year before.

Good luck with that at the polls, ya'll.

Y'all....is Biden in the house now - Did Biden bring his chains?

Rasmussen is one of the most trusted sites for polls.

Romney & Ryan are going to sweep Florida because the democrats simply think the seniors are too stupid to understand the issues. I think that will be the downfall of the democrat party in this election.

The good thing as you can see by many articles (not just this one) is that because of the failures of the democrats more and more people are keeping themselves informed. With the wonderful internet people are researching and informing themselves about issues that affect them. I think Obamacare is such a huge monumental failure that it will most likely cost him the election. Instead of coming up with a plan that would help people this is the stuff they come up with. Of course it doesn't help to have the input of Cass Sunstein and other communists.

I believe more people will trust Romney and Ryan to bring the country back. I believe that there are more people in the country who want it to remain a great nation, a Constitutional Republic than there are that want it to become a communist country. That's why I believe Romney and Ryan will be elected.

Think for yourself - and VOTE, regardless of any polls that might suggest that Obama has this sewn up.
