Could Obama get reelected?

Obama's approval is 49% in one of the many polls released weekly. Freepers usually ignore polls. But this one was Rassmusen, which they've cleaved to as the only unbiased one, due to it's consistent lowballing of Obama's approval. This is forcing them to confront the unimaginable - could Obama get reelected?

sand88 thinks it may be time...for drama!

2012 will be the most important election in our lifetimes. If this Marxist, Anti-American pig wins, then it is checkmate for our Republic. He will unmask his rabid, vite hatred for all things American, for white Americans and for Capitalism.

I pray enough Americans wake up There is a point at which Liberty is so threatened by government, that no election or law making can restore it; For those in power have no incentive, nor desire to even speak of Liberty.

After such time, only a Second American Revolution can save this Republic -- nothing else will work. We are very close to that point.

MNJohnnie sees this in the historical context. In a history where Clinton never balanced the budget in 1993, I guess.

He won his liberal base back by going out and singing the same old Progressive song about “tax the rich” yesteray.

In 1986, 1991 and 1993 the Progressive Democrats in Congress made the same pledge 0 did yesterday. Give us more tax money and we will cut the deficit. In 1986, 1991 and 1993 Taxpayers coughed up the money and the Congress increased spending exponentially and the tax payers got more debt then ever.

0 is merely signing the 4th verse of the same old DC Progressive song. It is just another lie.

How about this time we try something that has NEVER been tried by DC, we try to balance the budget strictly on budget cuts with NO tax increases?

sam_paine knows why Obama is popular - America is over.

Uh. Maybe because "Americans" actually go for his Shinola Sales tactics, and the "Americans" you romantically think of in your head, who voted for Reagan, etc, are pretty much gone? Maybe?

Maybe 2008 was not an aberration but an omen?

Grunthor knows that Obama's second term is totally the one where America ends:

He could be re-elected. It will mean the end of America. That is the bad news. The good news is that it’s not going take much longer. We are going to have to apparantly hit rock bottom before we face the grim reality that socialism is bad.

I look for food riots here in America before Comrade O’s second term is out.

ken5050 just blames the strong approval on black folks:

"23% strongly approve.."
If 17% of the voters are black, and 95% of them probably "strongly support" Obama..then other than "his people"..nobody else really likes him..

Wait, 17& of voters are black now? Or do liberals count as black these days?

MrB thinks unless Freepers homeschool, Obama will get reelected.

Freedom loving parents will have to pull their kids out of the Marxist indoctrination camps call “public” schools,
or else we’re cooked.
