Almost half of Americans think President Barack Obama does not deserve another term come 2012, according to a recent Quinnipiac University Poll.
The poll, released Wednesday, shows that 48 percent of the public thinks Obama doesn’t deserve to be re-elected. Four in ten say surveyed say that he does deserve another term.
If the election were to be held today, 36 percent of people surveyed said they would vote for Obama. Thirty-nine percent say they would vote for the Republican candidate.

Very interesting how the poll has gone down steadily... and does not seem to improve no matter what.. Things like Shirley Sherrod being let go from USDA by Tom Vilsack.. and then having to be made a re-hire offer... [dont know if she accepted it]... those will not add kindly to Pres.Obama's ratings.

The continued rating drops are surprising, particularly in view of the fact that MSM consistently fails to report all of the screw-ups and outright dirty dealings by the Obama WH and his supporters. Little has been aired in the media regarding the release of the video documenting voter intimidation in 2008 primary. Nor, as far as I am aware, has MSM aired the recent documentation of the conspiracy by lift wing media to squelch info about Obama's close relationship with the hate mongering pastor, Jerry Wright.
Of course FOX aired it, but some of their programming is so obviously biased against any Dem, especially The One, that some people don't take their news reports seriously, imo.
As the public becomes more informed about the sleaziness that accompanies Obama wherever he goes, hopefully, people will begin to see the light and actually, give a damn.

The media is dead as far as being the place where folks get their info. More and more are getting their info on the internet and are getting more facts.
It was the internet and all the stories about what was in that damn healthcare bill that caused the groundswell of dissent.
I think 2012 is going to be real interesting since hardly anyone believes the broadcast media anymore.
