Survey USA: 77% Favor Public Option in Health-Insurance Reform

SurveyUSA conducted a poll on health-insurance reform, basing its questions word-for-word on questions in the three most recent NBC News/Wall Street Journal polls. (The Wall Street Journal is, of course, owned by the same company that owns Fox News.)

19 percent: Quite important
 7 percent: Not that important
15 percent: Not at all important
 1 percent: Not sure
