He will kill a Muslim just before the vote for an easy win.

Or ressurect Osama and kill him again on live television with his bare hands.

This could be interesting.

I took a check through the numbers and some of the approved States (incl. NY,IL,and NJ) were between 50 and 51%, inside the margin of error I would assume.

If Obama is going to "win" he is going to need the right Republican to do it for him.

What the Gallup news ignores is that you don't run for president in a vacuum. If more people prefer Obama than prefer his opponent--and the chances of that look better every day--he's going to win.

Bush's last Gallup approval rating prior to the 2004 election was 48 percent.

Gallup state numbers predict huge Obama loss
byConn Carroll Senior Editorial Writer

Gallup released their annual state-by-state presidential approval numbers yesterday, and the results should have 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue very worried. If President Obama carries only those states where he had a net positive approval rating in 2011 (e.g. Michigan where he is up 48 percent to 44 percent), Obama would lose the 2012 election to the Republican nominee 323 electoral votes to 215.

True, but that's one giant if.

Obama is not running against Obama of 2010. He just have to be a little less unliked than the other guy on the ballot.

Or yeah, what he said, while I was typing. ^^^

Oblamer's record would sink him even if Charles Mansion run against him.

Manson isn't crazy enough to get the GOP nomination this year.

Obama will be fine.

He'll get that, too.

I wouldn't put it past the GOP to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. The last presidential election is proof.

 

[Liar]

Oblamer's record would sink him even if Charles Mansion run against him.

And still he is outpolling all of his most likely opponents.

Revisionism at its finest, Miles Ben Zonah.

Also, 97 people took time out of their busy day to tell you on-the-record that you're a concentrated pile of human shit.

That's a lot of people Miles Ben Zonah.

Obama loses to Romney.

He beats Gingrich or Santorum or Paul straight up.

He beats Romney if Ron Paul goes Third Party

 

[Liar]

Obama loses to Romney.

Possibly, but not likely.

I find this poll interesting because it provides a backdrop from which you can evaluate how the election campaign is developing. I have noticed that "Obama approval numbers" increase once you try "Obama vs. Candidate x". As you say approval numbers seem to operate in a vacuum.

I see that the bottom 11 "approval" States are all <37% but all are low population States as well. At the top end "approval" may be marginal but there are large electoral votes involved. Gives the candidates a good idea of where effort is going to pay off.

Oh, I almost forgot, no State is more important than Ohio.

I don't approve of Obama...but I am not voting for Romney either...

 

[Sean Renaud]

I wonder how many of these I won't vote for Romney types will actually not vote. I know I shouldn't tell them this but if they don't show up in 2012 it could easily be like in 2010 when the libs stayed at home cus Obama wasn't lefty enough for them. Don't dare make the mistake of thinking Occupy Wall Street or whatever is left of it will somehow forget to vote.

 

[Wok]

Possibly, but not likely.

Rasmussen has Obama at +4; that is not good.

 

[Liar]

Looks to me that this election will come down to how many on either side will turn out to cast a vote against the other candidate, rather than a vote for their own.

A rather sad scenario, methinks.

 

[Liar]

Rasmussen has Obama at +4; that is not good.

Rasmussen also has Obama's approval higher than any other poll. It's bizarro time in the world of political statistics.

 

[RightField]

There's a long way to go until the election and these early polls mean nothing. Half of them are attempting to "shape" the election.

 

[koalabear]

And still he is outpolling all of his most likely opponents.

Check his giant lead in the most liberal state of all, California.
