Currently, the President’s image rating is upside down with 40% of respondents having a favorable opinion of him, and 55% having an unfavorable opinion. Looking at responses among key voter subgroups, 52% of women, 53% of independents, 67% of Hispanics, and 58% of seniors have an unfavorable opinion of the President. Among voters aged 18 to 29, a vital voter subgroup in Barack Obama’s 2008 victory, 39% have a favorable image of him and 49% have an unfavorable image of him.
Among all respondents, only 37% approve of the job the President is doing and 57% disapprove of the job he is doing. Again looking at key voter subgroups, 53% of women, 56% of independents, 72% of Hispanics and 59% of seniors disapprove of the job Barack Obama is doing. The most alarming number for the President and his election team is that 26% of Democrats disapprove of the job he is doing. Among voters aged 18 to 29, 48% approve of the job he is doing and 52% disapprove of thejob he is doing.
Among all respondents, 37% think Barack Obama deserves re‐election and 57% think he does not deserve re‐election. Among women voters, 55% do not think the President deserves re‐election. Among other key voting subgroups, 55% of independents, 72% of Hispanics, 60% of seniors, and 27% of Democrats think the President does not deserve re‐election. Among voters aged 18 to 29, 38% think Barack Obama deserves re‐election and 50% think he does not deserve re‐election.
Maybe its me, but I don't think Obama was counting on Florida. Also, AFAIK, we are still on the Electoral College system. If things get too weird out there in them there red states, cooler heads can still save the country.

WOW, some people just LOVE polls. Silly people, Polls are BS, the Vast Majority are manipulated to show the results the poller or those that hire them want the poll to show, it is very easy, just word the questions properly and ensure you poll the "right" people and Bang you have a Poll you can be proud of.

It's not too late...he can still hand out free pot to everyone in Florida. If you get them all stoned, they might vote for Obama. Can't see anyone doing so if they aren't though.
The primaries haven't even started yet. Come back this time next year and if the numbers are the same or worse, then yes, President Obama has a problem in Florida.

Like the teabagers that voted Voldemort in werent stoned off their a$$es?
Please, not all of us that live here are idiots like that bunch.
I believe Florida has a majority of senior voters. I can't imagine this group voting for a group of republicans who are the puppets of the tea party with an agenda to end Social Security and Medicare.
At the very least if the republicans take over in 2012 you will see Social Security privatized and control turned over to the banks that fund the republican elections funds. Under GW Bush Americans lost many of their rights under the Patriot Act. If this current group of republicans gains control in 2012 seniors can say goodbye to the few dollars they get from Social Security and Medicare won't be worth a plug nickel.

And yet, the teabaggers are the ones that voted Voldemort in, go figure.
