8:03 am
governor, chris christie of new jersey. this year. he may seek the white house in 2016. christie enjoys his relationship with president obama and has always said the politics of storm relief should be considered distinct and separate from any other kind of politics. but the fact is conservatives criticized christie back in 2012 for being close to president obama and are likely to criticize this presidential trip to new jersey as well. christie says that's something his re-election campaign will deal with in 2016, if he decides to run. conservatives may be left less skeptical by the photo-op on a
8:04 am
rebuilt and reemerging jersey shore. back to you. >> thank you. taxpayers and businesses are asking new questions about president obama's health care law. a new poll shows 54% of americans oppose the affordable care act. >> republicans and democrats think the law has problems, but officials say there is no rush to fix them. cbs news political director john dickerson is in washington. what's the takeaway from the poll? >> that poll, that big number if you look at peole who oppose the law, that's about where it was in 2010. what's important to do is look inside that poll and not everybody opposes the president's health care law for the same reason. 35% say it's too liberal. 16% say it's not liberal enough. so the different shape of the opposition is important. why is it important now? because we're about to head into the third election where this will be an issue. in 2010 and 2012, we didn't know what the law was going to look like. in 2014, the law will start to be implemented and there will be actual facts that people can look at. >> how is the health care policy going to play in the republican strategy for 2014? >> well, for republicans, the affordable care act is the gift that keeps on giving. for conservatives, it's the perfect example of government run totally haywire.
8:05 am
it's huge, it's complicated. it affects you in a way that really gets at your daily life. and so republicans will be going back at that and talking about how it will ruin this thing you love. but there is a small downside for republicans, which is that the party is looking to try to give a positive message to voters. and to the extent they are against the affordable care act, that gets in the way of that. the possible upside for democrats is that there will be millions of new americans who are covered under this law. the problem though for democrats is a lot of those americans who will be covered are voters that are difficult to get out to the polls. the conservatives that don't like the affordable care act are just jumping to get at the polls. >> what about this "washington post" report over the weekend that a top policy aide of obama met with a number of health care investment firms? >> if you look at the story, it's hard to see what those investment firms got that wasn't already publicly available. everybody says that it was just information that anyone else could get.
8:06 am
but it shows one of the important things about this law in all of its complexities. everybody is trying to get an angle on what it's going to look like. we've had three years really of guesses about what this law is going to look like and what regulations will look like. it stacks up to many, many feet of complexity in this law. a lot of companies that can make business decisions based on this or trade based on health care companies are trying to get every little piece of new information they can get. >> that was my sense about that story, too, is there are many not just investment firms, but businesses that have no idea how the law is going to be implemented so they are just looking for information. >> that's right. and each little tiny piece of incremental information you can get about how this will roll out could be something that you can bank on or make an investment on that would give you an advantage over your competitors. >> this meeting is a regular course of business in terms of this kind of mammoth legislation? >> we don't know. we haven't had mammoth
8:07 am
legislation like this in a while. and both sides say nothing was conveyed that was not already publicly available. so in the sense, we have to take their word for it on that. but, yes, it is an enormous piece of legislation in which people are trying to get a basic handle on the basic fact. there's a lot of information exchange that wouldn't necessarily have to be sinister. >> all right. we thank you. vacation is over for more than 2,000 royal caribbean cruise passengers. a fire damaged the "grandeur of the seas" yesterday. today, passengers are being flown to baltimore where that cruise began. witnesses say they were kept up all night wearing lifejackets. royal caribbean says it is "deeply sorry for this unexpected development." passengers are now getting full refunds and gift certificates for a free cruisatater time. >> a gift certificate to come on back. a new study says america is the only rich country where workers are not guaranteed a paid vacation.
