Yes...I like his style of leadership. I support this administration's stance on Afghanistan and foreign policy in general. I think the President has been served well by Hillary Clinton and her staff.
I wish he would have dealt with financial regulation reform before health care legislation. And his team to deal with financial regulation is suspect (too close to Wall Street, IMO).
He's done what he could for the economy, and what he's done I support, but a lot of the economic recovery is out of his control.

My yes can turn into a no. It depends on how his administration handles financial regulation reform, and the national debt (not just deficits).

However, I can't see any Republican out there that can win my vote. It's Obama's to win or lose.

I voted for him because I thought the Republican party had gotten rotten to the core. I still think that. Until they get their sh(t together, I ain't voting any of them in. Until the RNC stops letting itself get hijacked by the likes of Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, then I will not vote for them. I would love to vote for someone who doesn't rally the far right to "energize the base" and doesn't succumb to the moronic anti-gay crowd.

So until the republicans get their act together and offer olive branches to actually DISCUSS the issues rather than sit around and do nothing and force everyone to do nothing (and the Dems do the same), I won't vote for them.

Ideally I wouldn't vote for anyone because nobody's worthwhile in my opinion, but I am far more afraid of the Republicans having a run than the other side of the aisle.

So far, I would vote for him again. I think at the end of the day, he will have accomplished a lot in his first term.

But ANY Democrat is better than any Republican in the general elections.
Do you even know what a "progressive" is? They are socialists! Are you a socialist?

I am not totally pleased with Obama but I will never vote to put the Republicans back in charge. Especially this bunch they have now. Few Americans want somebody like Palin close to the red phone.

He's "working in the best interest of the United States"? Really? Then why isn't he doing anything to improve the economy? Why is he instead destroying it, and the entire country and our Republican form of government?

I don't think any of you know who this guy is.

Obama is probably the worst enemy this country has ever faced.
