The economy falls deeper into the toilet everyday, with nothing better on the horizon. A large % of the people who were fooled by the liar last time, have wised up and wouldn't consider voting for him again.
You have to wonder who tells you what your opinion is, because they have no clue what is going on in the country. 2 1/2 more years and we will flush that socialist bum down the drain. Then all of his crap will be reversed, and the country will be saved..!
LOL
Good luck with that.
Jobs are returning, factory orders increasing, consumer spending rising.
All of which bode well for Obama in 2012.
At this point carter was alos on sound groundeven more so than obama. Obama is droppign like a rock and he needs to have real results for money spent. The trouble is he may not get much more to spend.

Look at Chart2.
See how the bars showing job losses have gone from a high of 700,000+ the month GW left office down to breaking even by the end of the year, to 100,000+ job gains in March.
The Republicans have far too many superstars waiting in the wings to hammer Obama with 4 years of nothing but failures, mistakes and embarrassment.
Obama would not win an election if it were held today.
It would take a total miracle for him to even have a chance with his track record.
Funny someone comes up with this when Obama is clearly tanking to the bottom and the demwit congress is at 11% approval rating.
Liberalism will be over soon thanks to the gift of Obama.
I hate Obama just as much as you do, but it's hard to GUARANTEE Obama's loss at this stage. Keep in mind, he is expanding the welfare base and number of people who live off of handouts and do not pay taxes. This is boosting his voter base and Amnesty would do the same thing.
Do I think Obama will win? No, but it's not a lock by any means.
The Economy is not improving. Sure, the 'stimulus' helped, but much of it was to maintain public sector jobs. We have been losing private jobs and gaining public ones. What we need is to lose public jobs and gain private ones. It's getting worse. Our deficits and debt are growing.
Remember... if over-spending, large deficits and easy money (i.e. low interest rate) are the problem... what's the solution? Lower spending, smaller deficits and higher interest rates. Obama is giving us more spending, bigger deficits and Bernanke is not raising rates.
Unless the economy improves dramatically in the next 2 1/2 years, Obama has no chance of being re-elected, and there are too many minefields still ahead in the US economy to believe that a Democrat (check the current economies in IL, CA, MI, NJ, NY & CT for the irrefutable proof) can oversee an economic recovery, given their party's track record on the economy going back to the equally incompetent FDR.
The Democrats bear the overwhelming percentage of blame for creating and worsening the housing collapse, which led to the implosion of the economy, and have done nothing to address and correct the core issues, and don't have the guts to admit their culpability in creating it, let alone the nerve to abandon their 'social justice' mandate, which certainly accelerated the destruction of our economy.
Barney Frank's immortal and imbecilic 'I want to roll the dice as it relates to subsidized housing' quote says it all, and he's still in Congress.
Much hay has been made over President Obama’s supposed vulnerability in 2012, Mark Halperin writes, but when you look at his probable challengers and his formidable political skills, his prospects seem positively rosy. Two legit Republican contenders exist at the moment: Mitt Romney “remains unexpectedly unfamiliar” (Halperin says a flight attendant mistook his picture on a book cover for John Edwards), and as for Tim Pawlenty—who’s that?
As the economy continues to recover over the next two years and the apocalyptic prognostications of the GOP pessimists prove to be nothing more than fear-mongering, Obama's stock will rise. Of course, the rabid right wing fundy racists will still loudly and angrily proclaim he's the anti-Christ, but the more rational majority of Americans will see through their smokescreen.
