More than half thinks Obama a one-termer (CNN 10/21/10)	Permalink

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2010/10/21/trending-more-than-half-thinks-obama-a-one-termer/ President Obama is busy trying to convince voters that Democratic incumbents deserve to keep their jobs, but a new poll out Thursday suggests a majority of Americans doesn’t think he deserves to keep his. According to the survey from Gallup, only 39 percent of Americans say the president deserves to be re-elected while 54 percent think he should join the ill-fated ranks of one-term presidents. Those numbers may be an ominous sign for the White House, which is expected to step up its re-election efforts shortly after the midterm election season is over. The latest Gallup poll surveyed 1,029 adults by telephone from October 14 to 17 and carries a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points. A CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll in August found similar numbers for the president when it comes to 2012: against an unnamed Republican candidate, that poll had the president losing by 5 points 50-45 percent. __________________ Nobody puts THIS baby in the corner!

That's a resoundingly loud (and quite possibly resolute) voice at this stage. CNN/ORC is a good survey in general. __________________ *Democracy needs defending* - SOS Hillary Clinton, Sept 8, 2010 Democracy is more than just elections - SOS Hillary Clinton, Oct 28, 2010 Madam Secretary Blog at ForeignPolicy.com Project Vote Smart - Stay informed and engaged!
