The poll comes as the president is struggling with a response to Putin's push into Ukraine and expectations that Crimea will break off and join Russia.

The "Flexibility" After the Election

I believe:
Obama and Putin are on the same side against America.
War in Europe by Monday.
Will not end with Ukraine.

Possible. But If so, Putin will quickly do away with his ‘partner’ once he ‘wins’.

Honestly not sure which would be worse to live under. Putin or Obama with the restraints off.

On the contrary, Obama is the most effective traitor in world history.
He is actively working for all America’s enemies, just like every college humanities instructor.
But Obama succeeded in infiltrating the Oval Office.

As I said earlier, the GOP. They likely polled House Republicans.
