Poll: Most Want Obama Fired In 2012
By Paul Bedard
Posted: October 27, 2010
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, rapped by the White House for
pledging to make Barack Obama a one-term president, seems to have the
support of a majority of Americans. A new poll provided to Whispers says
that 56 percent of likely voters want the president fired.
According to pollster Doug Schoen, whose new poll shows vast support for the
Tea Party movement among voters, the president is still liked by about half
the nation. In fact, more like him personally than like his policies. Some
48 percent think he's a nice guy, while just 42 percent approve of his job
performance.

But that personal favorability doesn't translate into re-election support
when voters are asked if Obama deserves a second term. Says Schoen: "Despite
voters feelings toward Obama personally, 56 percent say he does not deserve
to be re-elected, while 38 percent say he does deserve to be re-elected
president." Worse, Schoen adds, "43 percent say that Barack Obama has been a
better president than George W. Bush, while 48 percent say Bush was a
better president than Obama has been."

Still, the president has a shot at re-election, according to the poll of 1,
000 likely voters taken October 18-24. Schoen found that a slight majority,
51 percent, favor a third party in American politics and if that were the
Tea Party, then Obama would win in a three-way race in 2012. According to
Schoen, if the race pitted Obama, Republican Mitt Romney and Tea Party
favorite Sarah Palin in 2012, Obama would top the others with 40 percent;
Romney gets 32 percent and Palin 17 percent. And, in a bit of bad news for
Palin, if the Tea Party candidate were Mike Huckabee, he and Romney would
split the non-Obama vote 24 percent-24 percent.
