DUH! - Romney and Huckabee lead Obama in 2012 polls

[quinnox]

President Barack Obama trails both former Governors Mike Huckabee of Arkansas and Mitt Romney of Massachusetts in a potential 2012 matchup, according to a CNN/Opinion Research survey taken before Tuesday's election.

Huckabee tops Obama 52 percent to 44 percent in the survey. Romney leads 50-to-45 percent.



The numbers are troubling for the president, as both Huckabee and Romney routinely lead in early polls for the GOP presidential primary.

6. This 2010 Electorate wont be the same as the 2012

OUr people will be showing up in greater numbers. You can bank on that.

7. Um, You Might Want To Check On The Polls From 2002

The polls in 2002 all said that there were about 5 different Democrats who would all SLAUGHTER Bush in head-to-head matchups.

When the rubber hits the road, Huckabee will scare the pants off the moderate anythings and Romney will be outed as the scumbag he is.

Trust me, unless somebody new emerges soon, the Republicans have NOTHING for 2012. I'm still BEGGING them to run Sarah Failin. It would be a beating of epic proportions.

8. My son and I were talking about that election night

when all the republicans won. I am getting worried that Obama can't pull it out. I don't like the electoral votes stuff. I have said before just think. The most populated areas of this country don't get as represented as well as the small dinky little red states. That's why when you look at the map CNN continues to put up and the brag about all the red, you can tell it right off. Those whole states have just about the population of ONE LARGE CITY in California, New York, Chicago. And it is not fair that they have the right to have a vote equal to ours. I think the only way to stop all this crap is popular vote. if we had popular vote in a lot of states, we wouldn't have had Bush Bush Bush he lost so overwhelming in the popular vote. You can see how those dinky states out here like Wyo, Mt. etc helped him win. i think one person one vote counted should be the way it is. The long ago use of electoral votes worked but today they don't.

10. It is worrying

If these trends keep up, Obama is looking like a one-termer.

9. Good lord

Seems like you all have a hold on GP. I just went through and put like 10 of you on ignore but more of your crap keeps coming up. I'm tired of coming in GP only to find fake outrage which is really hate. Or stories that are not true and shit that Bush done that all of a sudden ya'll are pissed off about. I wonder how many will be on my ignore list before I can read some real news in GP. This is 10 times worse than the primaries. Many of you are just letting your true feelings show and it has nothing to do with politics.

[KittyWampus]

11. And of course you scurry over here to post that crap. Typical.

14. If you want to put on blinders, hang out in GD:Presidency

I prefer reality.

[BzaDem]

12. You conveniently left out the part of the article that cuts against your bullshit narrative.

"Obama also seems strong among Democrats, even though his party suffered a major loss on Tuesday.

Seventy-three percent of the self-identified Democrats surveyed said they wanted to see Obama renominated by his party. Few expressed a desire to see a primary challenge to the president."

[Blasphemer]

13. Meaningless. He will win in '12. Congress is the big quesiton mark... nt

[NNN0LHI]

16. Not surprising if you remember Bush once had a +90% approval rating

More than 9 out of 10 people you see walking down the street is a wanker.
