52% say Obama doesn't deserve reelection By Michael O'Brien - 02/16/10 01:35 PM ET
52 percent of Americans said President Barack Obama doesn't deserve reelection in 2012, according to a new poll.
44 percent of all Americans said they would vote to reelect the president in two and a half years, less than the slight majority who said they would prefer to elect someone else.
Obama faces a 44-52 deficit among both all Americans and registered voters, according to a CNN/Opinion Research poll released Tuesday. Four percent had no opinion.
The reelection numbers are slightly more sour than Obama's approval ratings, which are basically tied. 49 percent of people told CNN that they approve of the way Obama is handling his job, while 50 percent disapprove.
Still, the 2012 election is still a long way's away, with this fall's midterm elections looming large. Republicans are hoping to make inroads into Congress, while Democrats are hoping to hold onto gains won in the 2006 and 2008 cycles.
Respondents to CNN were split at 46 percent as to whether they preferred a generic Republican or Democratic candidate in this fall's elections.
At least one retiring lawmaker is confident Obama will sail to reelection, with Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) predicting Monday the president would win "overwhelmingly" in 2012.
The CNN poll, conducted Feb. 12-15, has a three percent margin of error.
Que the Titanic picture.
That’s gonna leave a mark....
99.99% on FR have that same assessment.
A couple of obamabots slipped in and skewed the results.
“At least one retiring lawmaker is confident Obama will sail to reelection, with Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) predicting Monday the president would win “overwhelmingly” in 2012.”
Of course Obama will win ‘overwhelmingly’, especially with ACORN counting the votes and union thugs manning the polling stations.
Only 6% believe the Obama admin saved or created 2 million jobs. THAT’S a mark!
This is a CNN poll that is heavily skewed toward the rats - reality must be even bleaker.
Add the 15-20% CNN polling bias, and you can quickly tell that Obambi is in deep doo-doo.
This means 48% of our population is living in a state of denial.
48% think he does? WTF?!
This is a CNN poll. Which means it is mostly Dems.
Impeach now. Why wait?
Obama will have to play the victim card big time.
Problem is that they probably have not counted the dead people who will vote for him anyway.
Is it against the law to carry a concealed firearm in a polling place? I know it depends on the state but in general.
I mean if I came across some guy holding a club out front and acting aggressively I would be fearful.
Bush’s fault!
They are losing faith in their Earthly Messiah; sucks to be them.
October 2011 we’ll be hearing “It’s Bushs fault”
What percentage say he didn't deserve election?
Maybe he can bite his lower lip and weep a bit.
That’s gonna leave a mark....
!!!!
Probably more like 70-75%
