Survey: Doctors choose Romney over Obama
No surprises here.
Wonder when the American people are going to figure out that the American Medical Association is an organization that represents practically no actual practicing physicians?
From The Daily Caller, where there is more:
If the election were held today, 55 percent of physicians reported they would vote for Romney while just 36 percent support Obama, according to a survey released by Jackson & Coker, a division of Jackson Healthcare, the third largest health care staffing company in the United States
Fifteen percent of respondents said they were switching their vote from Obama in 2008 to Romney in 2012. The top reasons cited for this change was the Affordable Care Act and the failure to address tort reform.
Leadership style, failure to follow through on campaign promises, unemployment and the general state of the economy were also factors.

One question and one comment:
What made those 15% who voted for Obama in 2008 think there was not going to be a [another liberal] push for Government run healthcare under Obama? And what in the world made them think that an [liberal] Obama administration would attempt to do anything about Tort Reform except to make the road even easier for the trial lawyers?
I guess that counts as two questions…....

Maybe not until they figure out where even more rationing is coming from? I hear lot’s of people complaining about their medical care but the complaints almost always point back to the doctor or hospital. I don’t hear but just a few people [nurses actually] complaining about the 100 ton gorilla in the room—the Government.
Case in point: I have a friend who finally got in line for a kidney transplant. It has been nearly a 4 year long process that sounds nearly as bad as dealing with the VA. He blames his doctors and the new computerized systems….....not the regulations driving all the roadblocks he has encountered.
