Obama dominates Romney in Russian opinion poll
RT ^

Posted on 10/31/2012 7:49:03 AM PDT by TigerClaws

An overwhelming percentage of Russians said the reelection of US President Barack Obama would better serve Russia’s national interests as opposed to the presidential challenger, Mitt Romney.

With the presidential race in the United States going down to the wire among American voters, Mitt Romney must be thankful that Russian citizens are not eligible to vote in US elections.

In a nationwide poll that tracked Russians’ political attitudes, a whopping 41 per cent of respondents said they want to see President Obama voted back into the White House, while just 8 per cent expressed preference for Republican challenger Mitt Romney.

Romney did say that Russia was our #1 strategic threat. Can’t see why Russians wouldn’t like that...

“a whopping 41 per cent of respondents said they want to see President Obama voted back into the White House”

If they like him so much, why don’t they just take him off our hands? I’d be happy to pitch in for the shipping.

Especially if he has more "flexibility" after the election. The Russians like their U.S. Presidents to be flexible.

41 per cent of respondents = Over whelming? Sounds like Obama Math. I’ve seen Obama and Clinton ridiculed on Russian TV. The Russians aren’t stupid, they recognize a pushover when the see them.

From a nation that gave the world Stalin, Gulags and unrelenting personal poverty and suffering to say nothing of millions of political deaths. Yup! Those Ruskies know their politics.

Russians don’t want to see a Conservative Business man running America....they want the Socialist/Progressive/Marxist in place. Frankly, who gives a rat’s patootie what Russia wants.....................

The Rooskie Stalinists are counting on Obama to bring back the USSR - in America.

Well, then, if the damned Russkies like Obama so much, let him be THEIR President.

Of course, the Russians aren’t that stupid...only WE are.

Poll is by RT, a propaganda arm of the Putin government.

Better question is why are they allowed to operate a cable network here.

If the Russians want Obama, they can take him. They are free to take this parasite off our hands anytime.
