46% oppose repeal, 45% favor or the other way around, but right down party lines. However, I saw another breakdown within that that showed a huge % did NOT want the whole thing repealed, only small parts, particularly the mandate that you have to purchase health insurance or face penalties. Only 11% favored complete repeal. I can't find a reference yet but it was on NBC news within the last two nights.
So, frankly, the Republicans better tread carefully. They're either misreading or intentionally ignoring what people want. They will do so at their own peril. The next election may boot out the Republican majority in the House.

Poll
I don't see the breakdown on Health Care Repeal in the above poll so it may have been a separate poll. I'll try to do some more looking later.
