Two new and disturbing polls just out suggest that the road to reelection is getting tougher for President Obama.
In the most significant, Gallup found that union member support for the president is weaker than it was on Election Day. While Obama took 67 of the union vote, according to 2008 election night polling by Peter Hart for the AFL-CIO, Gallup discovered that just 58 percent of union members back the president now. Some 35 percent support Mitt Romney, 5 percent more than Sen. John McCain won in 2008.
Gallup said the union vote is a significant block for Obama, though, “their impact on the presidential race will be limited by their size -- just about 12% of employed voters are union members.”
Rasmussen Reports, found that a majority of likely American voters -- 60 percent -- believe that it is at least somewhat likely that the next president will be a Republican, including 34% who see this scenario as very likely. Among Democrats, 35 percent of likely voters also said Obama would be followed by a Republican.
Rasmussen said that when Obama first took office, just 44 percent thought a Republican would replace him
Yes, from experience we know that those union journals make great fire-starters and compost.
my mind cannot even HANDLE the thought of another 4 years of Obama!
I guess that means union members are now “RACIST”!!!!
FANTASTIC!! and Thank You very much!
May GOD SAVE AMERICA!! and especially from the Idiots who still Support Obama and His Band of Criminals, Murderers and Traitors who Hate America and Her Freedoms!
It appears that Obozo is losing the support of a lot of the key groups which enabled him to be the el supremo leader.
He will never lose the support of the 25-30 % of the nation, who are the hard core rats. They will vote for him if they are alive or passed on.
What may happen is a lot of those who supported him in 2008 will sit out this election and not vote. College kids, recent unemployed high school grads and college grads with instant unemployment degrees, union members, and minority groups who expected everything to be paid for, may just opt not to vote.
That is a win for our side. If they don’t vote again for him, he will be hurting.
A large group that will vote and not for him are the real independents. He started losing a lot of these voters after his first year as glorious leader, and he will continue to lose them as he pimps for the hard core left voter like the gays, green eco terrorists, illegal alien vote, all of which he has.
These change over real independents will hurt him two ways:
1. He loses their votes.
2. They will vote for Romney.
May was a great month for our side and a terrible one for the previously chosen one.
June is looking even worse for the previously chosen one.
Lets hope the rest of the months will do one of two things to his previous voters.
1. They sit out this election.
2. They come over to our side and vote for Romney and Tea Party candidates to beour new congressits and senators.
I have some Union literature from the 08 election that was sent to members telling them who to vote for in CT. I will have to find that.
oh yes they do!!
