Most Americans still oppose the nation's health reform law justas its main provisions are only months away fromimplementation.

A new CNN/ORC International poll found that 54% of Americansoppose the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, while 43%support it.

That figure remains mostly unchanged since polling began in2010, when President Obama signed PPACA into law.

Still, the number isn't great news for Democrats who've beenstruggling to market the law as the main components of it are setto begin within months. Enrollment in the law's health careexchanges is set to begin Oct. 1, with coverage beginning in January.

But the poll indicates that a chunk of the law's critics don'tsupport PPACA because they don't think it goes far enough.

The survey found that 35% oppose the health care law becauseit's “too liberal,” with 16 percent saying they oppose the measurebecause it isn't liberal enough.

Many critics have slammed the law for doing little to rein inout-of-control health care costs, though curbing costs was amain initiative of PPACA.

The poll also highlights a still-strong partisan divide: Nearlythree-quarters of Democrats say they favor the law, while 16% ofRepublicans favor it.

The survey was conducted by ORC International, with 923 adultsnationwide questioned by telephone. The poll has an overallsampling error of plus or minus three percentage points.
