Poll: Americans, 2-1, Fear Obama's Reelection
January 9, 2012

When it comes to how Americans view President Obama going into the new year, there appears to be very little spirit of Auld Lang Syne. Instead, according to the new Washington Whispers poll, many voters aren't forgetting what they dislike about Obama and want him out office.

In our New Year's poll, when asked what news event they fear most about 2012, Americans by a margin of two-to-one said Obama's reelection. Only 16 percent said they fear the Democrat won't win a second term, while 33 percent said they fear four more years. [Check out the top political events of 2011]

Next to Obama's reelection, 31 percent of Americans said they feared higher taxes, which may be proof that the president's focus on the payroll tax cut has hit paydirt.

As Obama tries to grow the economy with debt (again), surprised why people are fearful?

Misleading headline. Roughly 1/3rd fear Obama’s re-election but roughly 1/6th fear he won’t.

What blather. The "payroll tax cut" is insignificant -- the modern version of "let them eat cake."

The only candidate who can beat Obama is Dr. Paul.

Mittens is Obama lite
Newt has too much baggage
Santorum is a lightweight

Well, at least we can find someone who believes that. Dr. Paul may make two.

Who, I wonder, would Paul’s people coalesce around (or run to) if he were suddenly unavailable..

The vibe I get from the Paul people I run into is that probably 75% of them don’t actually vote.

I guess then the only thing we have to fear are our fellow Americans! Sounds right to me
