no small feat, explaining away 17 trillion and 2 additional war involvements to a bankrupt nation. also americans are very slowly but surely realizing that mr obama does not use the judicial system like we have to, he had navy seal hit men get rid of the troublemakers. i am for the first time since the 60's seeing young people at the street corners begging. but they dont look groovy just spaced out.

Actually that doesnt help your argument either

Swing-voting independents see Barack Obama’s plans for the economy negatively rather than positively by 54-38 percent in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll

It’s no party for Mitt Romney either – independents also rate his economic plans more unfavorably than favorably, by 47-35 percent.

Look at the math before you post another one, this has a 12 point spread for Romney, vs a 16 point spread for Obama, and 54 percent unfavable rating vs 47 for Romney

Intrade had Obama up 60% to Romney's 38% in April. June is reflecting a consistent 10 pt lead for Obama, thus far. Will be interesting to watch in the coming months as InTrade, generally, comes out to be more reliable than other polling. I guess it would as money is in play.

It stll is and always will be - "It's the economy, stupid."

A Chilly Reception from Independents On Obama’s Plans for the Economy
What the problem is....Americans have experienced first hand obama's economic plans, whereas they haven't with Mitt.

Quote:
But more are undecided, giving Romney some room to maneuver; and, unlike Obama, Romney avoids majority criticism in this group.
Oh, let's wait to see what they have for party ID too. Their practice is to give the democrats a huge party ID advantage, which does NOT represent reality.

The percentage of Americans who approve of Obama's job performance dropped from 50 a month ago to 47, matching his mark in early January. The number who think the country is on the wrong track rose 6 percentage points in a month to 63 percent.

The doubts about Obama's leadership helped Romney pull to within 1 point of the Democratic president in the White House race - 45 percent to 44 percent - among registered voters with less than five months to go before the November 6 election. Obama led by 7 points a month ago.
