Bloomberg Poll: Only 3 In 10 Say They Will Definitely Vote To Reelect Obama…
I blame racism.
(Politico) — Americans are growing increasingly more frustrated with President Barack Obama’s handling of the economy and only 3 in 10 say they are certain they will vote to re-elect him in 2012, a new poll finds.
Just 23 percent of those surveyed for a Bloomberg News poll released Wednesday say they are hopeful about the economy because they see signs of improvement, while 25 percent say they are fearful things are getting worse and 51 percent are cautious because nothing seems to be happening.
Those signs of economic pessimism aren’t helping Obama’s reelection bid.
Sixty-one percent of Americans say they believe the president will have had a chance to make the economy “substantially better” by the end of 2012, while 37 percent say he won’t have. Forty-four percent of Americans say they are worse off than they were when Obama took office, while 34 percent say they are better off and 21 percent say they are doing about the same.
While 30 percent of Americans say they will vote for Obama, 36 percent say they definitely won’t vote for him. Among likely independent voters surveyed, just 23 percent say they are certain they will vote for Obama while 36 percent say they are sure they will seek out another candidate.

This next election makes or breaks this nation. It will take decades to undo the damage, but four more years will be the end.
Gawd there a a lot of stupid people still here in America still willing to vote for obama.
We still have a lot of work to do people need to knock that number down to 1 or out of respect for obama’s last name and attributes 0
3 in 10.
And this is the BEST the Left had to offer. Better than the best even, which was Bill Clinton if you’re a Leftist. After the Left had complete control of government across the board for two years and partial control for the last year, they screwed up everything so badly that they’re going to be hurled out in the next election. And we’ve got a year and a half to go.
Liberalism, Marxism, Democrats, Communism, environmentalism, Keynesian economics, all of them EPIC FAIL.
That’s still way too many. The fact so many people would still vote for this incompetent dufus is mind boggling. Well, the nation was dumb enough to elect him in the first place so…
This poll is RACIST!
It’s all Bush’s fault.
“I blame racism.” – Zippy
racism is to blame, it’s why 3/10 people will still vote for him instead of 1/10.
-President FFM
Scary, since 3 out of ten, will equate to six, at any poling station run by Libs.
If the economy continues to flounder, I predict that some who support Obama today will switch votes.
I think for those that “voted for the first time” in the 20-35 age range have a lot more invested in this clown. They feel admitting that he failed, violates their emotional connection to the weight (self imposed) of that ‘monumental’ choice.
It’s problematic because all he has to do is blow the dog whistle and these now 2nd time voters will double down, rather than risk that disappointment again. To hell with whatever is actually going on… Plus they are conditioned and inundated by MSM and comedy central to reject even looking for the truth. Believe me I see/hear it from my peers everyday.
Most (even my closest friends) I cannot even discuss politics with because they immediately take it as an affront to everything they’ve invested themselves in politically/emotionally. They become immediately enraged, there is no discussion. I’ve had good friends near spitting mad with aggression in just trying to have a simple conversation. That connection is dangerous. They vote on emotion.
I have heard those describe being at the BO inauguration as the most life changing event they ever experienced… The indoctrination and investment is deep deep seeded.
This all dependent on if they actually go vote… The ‘cool’ of it could have worn off… But remember the dog whistle. It is coming.
Also, don’t think these people won’t cheat. They aren’t going to let the death grip off America and the west’s throat that easily. It’s been 100 years since they started this fundamental transformation… Lots of skin in the game.
The economy will continue to flounder.
There will continue to be monthly “surprising” bad news about it. Economic sages of the media seem to be extremely misinformed or badly taught economics or just plain stupid. My vote is for stupid. Such as Paul Krugman of the NYT, “Nobel” prizewinner. The left keep following him and constantly are surprised at the continuing bad news.
The basis of knowledge for those that manage the economy are fundamentally flawed. There is no way the economy will turn around while they are managing it.
On the other hand, Obama has done something far worse to black Americans. He will make white Americans think twice before they vote for a black presidential candidate again. He is busy placing mistrust for our fellow black Americans.
Also they do fear the title of racist if they don’t support him.
This man isn’t just a president to younger people, he is a part of their identity.
I pray for the day to come and soon where I will never hear or see that POS Ubama and his fatass wife again.
IT WILL TAKE SOME DOING TO KICK HIM OUT OF OFFICE. THE LAME STREAM MEDIA IS ALREADY PUSHING HIM AND HIS AGENDA AS THE ONLY THING THAT WILL SAVE THE WORLD.
WE MUST ALL BECOME RACISTS I SUPPOSE!
“I blame racism.” Nah!
I blame Weasel Zippers!
You know, there’s a market for a “I’m A Racist” line of products.
“I voted against Obama. I guess I’m a racist.”
“I’m against ObamaCare. I guess I’m a racist.”
…Why not embrace the name, and use it as a badge of honor? Take it’s sting from the brain-dead, knee-jerk Libs?
I’d buy one.
There y’go. Business ideas for free, Folks.
Call it racism, BUT I will never vote for an Irishman as President again. /sarc
30 percent WILL vote to reelect this failure!!!!!!
Well mark your calendar folks. It doesn’t happen often but I was wrong the other day when I stated, “20-30 percent of the folks that voted for Ubama the first time will NOT vote for him again”.
It appears I was only half right.
So, only three out of ten will definitely vote for Obomba?
Funny how nearly 70%, or 7 out of 10 people in the United States are white.
This is irrefutable proof that all white people are racist.
It couldn’t possibly be that he’s a lying, war mongering, bigoted, arrogant, egotistical, maniacal tyrant who accelerated our descent into a third world authoritarian state at the behest of offshore interests while simultaneously wiping his ass with the Constitution. Nope, no siree.
@Daddy-O
I have been embracing the term since Katrina.
FROM THE article ^^^^^
SIXTY-ONE % Of Americans say they belive that the President will have a chance to make the Economy “substaintally better” by 2102!!!
That’s so frigging scary.
And, yep, 3 out of 10 really means “6 in 10″ what with voter fraud and the Dead!
Beside that…..Some States will not (can not) hold a Republican Primary due to ‘budget constraints’.
Firts up in the NO R Primary is SC.
So Nikki Halley can’t afford it.
Since IT IS Nikki, I feel less ”threatened”’ as opposed to a deep blue state.
Nikki is my Gov and I really like her.
BOTTOM LINE >>>>….. 61% believe BHO can turn the economy around by 2012!!
I’m curious. Where would they find 3 people that would vote for him unless they’re unemployed?
Was at an intersection last week and a car with an Obama 2012 bumper sticker (the ‘classic’ Obama O in full use) was beside me. Nice car. Decent looking ‘white’ fella who obviously was not a blue-collar worker. I motioned for the guy to roll down his window and asked, “Four more years, huh?”
He said, “You bet! He’s great!”
I just pointed up at the $4+/gallon sign at the corner gas station and told him, “If he manages to buy his way back into four more years with a billion dollars let’s just meet back here after the first two years and see what the sign says. Okay? Okay.” I chuckled loudly, and put my window back up and I made my turn.
I’d sooner have ebola in the water supply than Zero in the WH.. both are incurable.
Obama is proof that not everyone should be encouraged or even allowed to vote
A cocker spaniel could beat Obama. All one has to do is run against the punk’s record. Keep throwing it in his face and he’s DONE.
President Obama’s attempt to transform America is finally creating a powerful backlash. The Obama presidency lies in rubble; failure has been its defining characteristic. The country is facing an economic crisis. Unemployment is high. Growth is anemic. Gas prices are sky-high. America is choking on its debt. We are bogged down in three failed wars. Mr. Obama’s popularity is plummeting. The liberal regime – once dominant – is tottering.

30% would still vote for him????? My God why do these 30% have the right to vote? We need a Jim Crow type law now! These folks need some skin in the game” Because ANYONE with skin in the game wouldn’t vote for this dumb bell.
The good news is that the democrats will become increasingly demoralized and desperate due to the inevitable falling polls for the One. eventually they will turn on him and attempt to replace BO on the ticket. They are screwed no matter what they do. But a RINO in the WH with a RINO House and Senate will not be a good thing necessarily.
I blame intelligence.
I can’t take credit for this as it was posted as a response to an article on the Zip Wire…a little long for a bumper sticker, but it works…
“If you voted for Obama in 2008 to prove you’re not a racist, you’ll have to vote for someone else in 2012 to prove you’re not an idiot.”
