The KNOWLEDGABLE Republicans already KNOW that - that's part the reason so many of the political heavyweights have decided not to run - they KNOW that Obama is going to be nearly impossible to beat and don't really want to waste their financial and political capital by being a sacrificial lamb.
It's the politically ignorant folks - including many on this board - who are constantly bragging about how "Obama is toast". These are folks who don't have a clue about politics OR history.
The polls however, tell a very different story - one FAR more realistic - so I guess those folks who are always going on about how poorly Obama will fare will just have to wait and be suddenly surprised by events that were more than obvious to folks that are more politically aware/knowledgable.

Spot on. The GOP is definitely out another 4 years.
I'm thinking Sanrene & Co. will have to adjust their status message dates forward Like Harold Camping LMAO
At least if we voted for Cain we couldn't be called racists again. I really do wonder what might happen if he gets nominated. It would surely split the black vote.
You mean the SAME Michele Bachmann that's down an enormous 18 POINTS when pitted against Obama?
She doesn't have a chance.

Real Clear Politics is doing something that nobody has ever done successfully when they make their attempt to average all the other polls. Hang in there though.
Why don't you point what he did about getting bin Laden other than to give permission for the kill? That will never work to win re-election.
So what do YOU attribute his huge jump in the polls to?
Face it, it put to bed the idea that he's "soft on terrorism" that the GOP had tried to foster. Most folks realize that's just bunk now.

Which is a big reason why they are pushing for him.

So don't LOOK at the AVERAGES. Just look at the INDIVIDUAL POLLS separately. The picture is still the SAME (not good for Bachmann).

Are you saying that his attempt to force the Israelis to give back their hard earned land which would have defeated them very soon isn't softness on terrorism? I think it may be necessary to look into that statement pretty soon.
His huge jump in polls was made in one poll in early April and nothing happened when he ordered the death of bin Laden. NOpe he went to -10 and has been right there ever since. Oh, I forgot, that poll is a cheater's ground and right leaning. Rasmussen.
