The latest poll by Democracy Corps, the firm of James Carville and Stan Greenberg, has Republicans leading on the generic ballot among likely voters, 48 percent to 42 percent.
Deep in the poll, they ask, “Now, I am going to read you a list of words and phrases which people use to describe political figures. For each word or phrase, please tell me whether it describes Barack Obama very well, well, not too well, or not well at all.”
On “too liberal,” 35 percent of likely voters say it describes Obama “very well,” 21 percent say “well,” 21 percent say “not too well,” and 17 percent say “not well at all.” In other words, 56 percent of likely voters consider Obama too liberal.
When asked about “a socialist,” 33 percent of likely voters say it describes Obama “very well,” 22 percent say “well,” 15 percent say “not too well,” and 25 percent say “not well at all.”
In other words, 55 percent of likely voters think “socialist” is a reasonably accurate way of describing Obama.

That’s not the worst of it, though. In this poll, which had a 35/31 Democrat-Republican split — better than some media pollsters manage — Barack Obama sinks underwater on job approval, 46/50. More strongly disapprove (38%) than strongly approve (27%) of his job performance. Among likely voters, the gap widens to 45/51, with 40% strongly disapproving of Obama’s performance. The same exact splits occur on Obama’s handling of the economy, although those strongly approving drop to 22% among all respondents and 23% of likely voters.
On the Congressional ballot, the bad news continues for Democrats. The GOP wins overall on the question, 46/43, but among likely voters the split goes to six, 48/42. Twenty-six percent said there was “no chance” they would support a Democratic candidate, while 18% said “no chance” about the Republicans.

My sincere hope is that at least 55% of likely voters will soon find "Former Pres" an accurate label for Odamna.

I don't think bho is a socialist, that ain't even close to what he is. He is definitely far left of socialist, past Commie even. He is an America-hating one-worlder statist whose sole job is to destroy this country's political, economic, social and military power so the one-worlders will get their way, and no one will stand in their way. And then bho will be handsomely rewarded with his 30 pieces of silver. Just like all of the politicians and kongress kritters who have sold us out over the past decades.
Many centuries ago, John Wycliffe died. He was a protestant reformer, and when Rome found out he was dead, they tracked down his grave, dug him up, burned what was left to ashes, and threw the ashes in the ocean.
Sounds like a fitting end for those politicians who sold us out over the years and have passed on.
