I don't think so. Any POTUS as delusional as Obama who seems to think most Americans still support him can be beat by a box marked "anybody but Obama". Even the contributions from foreigners won't help him this time.

Anyway, you have seemed to miss my point. Yes both Bushes in 91 & 03 respectively did better than the generic candidate. That is not what I was referring to. What I was referring to is the generic candidate will do better than that party's named candidate.

I used the fact that yes Generic or any Republican leads Obama, when you start naming the Republican whether it be Romney, Bachmann, Palin, Gingrich, Pawlenty, etc, Obama leads. Comprehend now??

Oh dear, again you do not comprehend. If you were to reply to a post and part of that post appears in quotes, only the portion of the post not in quotes will appear when you try to reply to it. You would technically need to do a cut and paste job to get the entire post there. Simply doing

is not going to be enough when the portion within the quotes doesn't show up when you click to reply with quote.

Then why when Obama is matched up in a poll against a name Republican candidate does Obama lead in virtually every poll?

Questionable polling is my guess.

Lets see named Republican candidates actually leading Obama in a handful of polls, then perhaps we can say it might have some meaning.

So Obama leads in virtually every poll due to questionable polling?? EVERY poll is questionable polling?

Let me help you.

I have stated what I posted was researched fact .. correct?

Now .. It's up to you to do your own work!
(you know .. give us something that disputes .. my facts)
except for the fact is that you don't have any facts.

You seem to be the only one that believes they are left leaning. Prove it!
