Fox News Poll: 43 Percent Would Vote To Re-Elect President Obama - Political News - FOXNews.com
The headline-grabber from this batch of statistics is above: Only 43% of voters would vote to re-elect the president today. Considering that he won about 53% of the popular vote eleven months ago, this tells us that he would receive approximately 19% fewer votes. Considering that his vote total was about 69.5 million in 2008, a 19% drop would shrink that to about 56.3 million—about 3.6 million fewer than John McCain actually received.
Perhaps we can conclude that at least 13.2 million Americans have awakened. That's a good start.
On the other hand, 60% of voters think the president is "a strong and decisive leader." So there's still work to do.
Did Obama deserve the Nobel Prize? 38% of democrats, 74% of independents, and 91% of republicans did not think so. Overall, that's 65% of Americans who think he did not deserve it.
Then there's this closing paragraph from the article:
Finally, in a rare example of bipartisan agreement, majorities of Democrats, 53 percent, Republicans, 78 percent, and Independents, 61 percent, agree the country is more divided these days. All in all, 64 percent of Americans think the country is more politically divided today -- that's more than twice the number who say it is not more divided, 31 percent."Bipartisan" refers to two parties. Three groups are mentioned. Hmmm....
