Bad News for Incumbent Obama … Quinnipiac Poll: Ohio Voters Divided On Second Term For Obama, 45% – 46%

Its never a good sign when an incumbent politician polls under 50% … such is the case with Barack Obama in Ohio and whether the voters think he deserves a second term.

According to a recent Quinnipiac Poll, 45% of Ohio voters think he deserves a second term, while 46% disapprove. Ohio, is a key swing state that Obama carried in 2008; however, went strongly Republican in the 2010 midterm elections. As stated by the Hot Air Pundit, Ohio is a must win for Republicans. However, the same could be said for Obama.

Ohio voters are split 45 – 46 percent on whether President Barack Obama deserves a second term, but they favor him over an unnamed Republican 2012 challenger 41 – 34 percent, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. 
 
President Obama has a split 47 – 48 percent job approval rating, compared to 49 – 46 percent in a January 20 survey by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University.

The problem for Obama in any swing state that he won in 2010 is that he now has a record to defend. Obama can not longer talk and “Hope & Change” or that he is not GWB. He will have to defend Obamacare, the economy and his continues lack of leadership when crisis occur. After being against Bush going to war, Obama has his own war now to defend in Libya.

Polls at this point are pretty much irrelevent; however, the real issues will be what is the economy, jobs, gas prices and the instability in the Middle East going to look like. Voters will have a clear choice in 2012 to decide on in Ohio and across the United States, the failed liberal/socialist policies of a weak president or a return to more conservative, capitalist ways.

One thing is for certain, Obamamania will not exists … We the People know exactly who and what Obama is. The real question is not whether Obama deservess a second term, it’s whether the United States can stand an

Even Bill Clinton Thinks There are “Ridiculous Delays” in Obama’s Admin Issuing Offshore Drilling Permits

Even Bill Clinton thinks Obama is delaying deep water drilling and hurting the economy.

How bad is the Obama administration in messing with the economy and delaying the issuing of offshore drilling permits? Even former Democrat President William Clinton is slamming Obama for their “ridiculous delays”.  At a IHS CERAWeek conference, Bill Clinton agreed with former Republican President George W. Bush on many oil and gas issues, including the the fact that there were “ridiculous delays in permitting when our economy doesn’t need it.”

It isn’t the first time that Clinton called Obama ridiculous

Former President Bill Clinton said Friday that delays in offshore oil and gas drilling permits are “ridiculous” at a time when the economy is still rebuilding, according to attendees at the IHS CERAWeek conference.

Clinton spoke on a panel with former President George W. Bush that was closed to the media. Video of their moderated talk with IHS CERA Chairman Daniel Yergin was also prohibited.

Gallup: Ronald Reagan Named Greatest US President Ever

With President’s Day 2011 almost upon us this coming Monday, according to a recent Gallup poll, Ronald Wilson Reagan was named the greatest United States President ever.  In the past 12 years of this survey, Reagan, Lincoln and JFK has have topped the list. If you ask me for the top 3 greatest Presidents ever … Lincoln, Washington and Reagan.

Ronald Reagan Speech – 1964 Republican National Convention

From 1964 to present, his words make even more sense today.

The 2011 poll had the rating as follows: 1. Reagan, 2. Lincoln, 3. Clinton, 4. JFK, 5. Washington and 7. Obama. With all due respect to those voting, its bad enough that Bill Clinton would have been named #3 and ahead of JFK, but Barack Obama at seven? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Its obvious that 5% of those voting couln’t name another US President other than Obama. Would this mean as pointed out by Michelle Malkin.com that according to liberal MSM comparisons of Obama to Reagan, even though they have nothing in common, that Obama’s wins by the transiative property? The answer would be, no.

We might want to see what the break down looked like according to Republicans, Democrats and Independents. Some might find in shocking that Democrats would pick Clinton ahead of Kennedy, Obama ahead of FDR and Lincoln and George Washington no where to be seen. Then again, nothing should surprise us any more from these folks.

Gallup: Barack Obama in Tie With Generic GOP Candidate for 2012 Presidential Election

According to the most recent Gallup Poll, Barack Obama is a deadlock tie, 45% – 45%, as to if registered voters would support Obama or an “unnamed” Republican candidate. One year ago Obama had a 44% to 42% lead when the same question was asked. So where did that so-called bounce for Obama and come back kid go that the MSM has been shilling?

As stated at The Hill, the results of the Gallup poll provide optimism for the many GOP candidates that are expected to run in the Republican Presidentialprimary to face Obama. Obama’s talk of “winning the future” looks like it may not include him politically. Although Republicans have a long way to go and need to come up with a dynamic new candidate, not a past retread … Barack Obama does face the spectre of losing to an unnamed candidate, not even a headline name.

The poll, release Wednesday, underlines an opportunity for the large field of potential Republican candidates looking to defeat Obama on the heels of the Democrats’ “shellacking” in the 2010 midterm elections, when they lost control of the House and six Senate seats.

The results of the generic ballot survey are virtually unchanged from last year, when Obama held a slight two-point edge over a generic Republican.

But the poll suggests Obama is more vulnerable than former President George W. Bush at this point in his presidency.

Interestingly enough, when Obama’s poll versus a generic candidate is compared to GWB at the same time, Bush beat a generic Democrat among registered voters by 47% to 39%.

In polling from October 2001 through January 2004, George W. Bush consistently led an unnamed Democratic opponent, although by a shrinking margin as his job approval rating descended from a post-9/11 reading of 87% to the 50s and 60s. In February 2003, the point in Bush’s presidency comparable to Obama’s presidency today, Bush beat a generic Democrat among registered voters by 47% to 39%.

Jimmy Carter Vouches for The Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt … “They’re “not anything to be afraid of.”

File this one under the category of consider the source …

Former Democrat President Jimmy Carter vouches for the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt,  ”They’re “not anything to be afraid of.” Well that makes me feel so much better now that Carter has personally vouched for the,. NOT! Carter stated that although the Muslim Brotherhood has ties to Hezbollah, there’s nothing to be afraid of. UNREAL.

Of course as Breitbart TV stated, ”Yeah, because this guy has such a great track record. After all, he welcomed the return of Ayatollah Khomeini to Iran in 1979 and look how well that worked out.”
