The only way I see President Obama getting re-elected is if the economy turns around to the point where jobs are plentiful.
I voted for Obama. But, I don't think he will be re-elected. Reason: JOBS! This resession hasn't affected me one bit. However, it has affected way too many people. One of your highest priorities as President must be to keep people working. This is the one factor that lends stability to society. Unemployment is too great a destabilizer to not give it your utmost attention and service.
I'm impressed! An admitted Obama voter who acknowledges the truth.
Romney can't win the Republican primary. Plus he's probably just about as liberal as Obama is, so I doubt conservatives would vote for him.
If he gets the nomination they will support him. Republicans always support the candidate, maybe they do not work grass routes which hurts, but they do vote..
The tax agreement he reached with the Republicans is far too timid to make a difference in injecting some life into the economy or really giving the economy a shot in the arm, so my answer is no.
On top of that, his EPA and HHS Director are hell-bent on trashing what's left of the economy; the healthcare bill is a megacolossal disaster, and dumping 30,000,000+ new patients smack dab into the middle of a wave of retirement by milliomns of physicians (or changing their method of operation into a 'concierge service', in which they take all cash only and no insurance whatsoever) is nothing short of idiotic.
His Treasury Secretary's deliberate destruction of the dollar which has simultaneously caused soaring gas and grocery prices, a trend which is bound to continue will certainly ravage the middle class certainly won't help him or his party, a section of the citizenry which he and his fellow Democrats 'allegedly' represent but are certainly not doing any favors for.
12+ months of dragging his feet regarding tax reform is really going to cost him; there's almost no chance that anybody will be getting their tax forms and especially their tax returns on time this year, an issue which is 100% his fault, and will definitely not be forgotten come 2012.
Obama will be the next president. I'm not sure I'd vote for him, but the GOP has NOBODY who can beat Obama.
The more I think about it the more I think the GOP doesn't want the job. They're doing real well sitting on the outside tearing down the establishment. They sure didn't want it in 2008. They knew what they did and what was coming. That's why then ran an old worn out horse in the 2008 race. They use entertainers now to keep the faithful interested and focused on the agenda.

Hey, it is what it is! I've voted Republican before and would not hesitate to do so again if they ran a formidable candidate. However, I haven't seen a good Republican Presidential candidate since President Regan. Admittedly, he was a hard act to follow. I'm proud to have voted for him.
I voted for Obama because I was sickened by george bush's ignorance, incompetence, and extreme lack of leadership. Would've probably voted for McCain had he not chosen palin as his running mate. That was poor judgement on McCain's behalf. Seems like he chose her for being female, aesthetically appealing, and for her brashness. Great qualities, but that does not make you Vice-Presidential material.
Probably. The Republicans will turn the economy around and Obama will reap the benefits.
