The latest poll by Democracy Corps, the firm of James Carville and Stan Greenberg, has Republicans leading on the generic ballot among likely voters, 48 percent to 42 percent.
Deep in the poll, they ask, “Now, I am going to read you a list of words and phrases which people use to describe political figures. For each word or phrase, please tell me whether it describes Barack Obama very well, well, not too well, or not well at all.”
On “too liberal,” 35 percent of likely voters say it describes Obama “very well,” 21 percent say “well,” 21 percent say “not too well,” and 17 percent say “not well at all.” In other words, 56 percent of likely voters consider Obama too liberal.
When asked about “a socialist,” 33 percent of likely voters say it describes Obama “very well,” 22 percent say “well,” 15 percent say “not too well,” and 25 percent say “not well at all.”

The rest don’t know what the heck a “socialist” is.
Amazing, coming from Carville no less.
Who’d a thunk it?
Socialist is far too mild. Marxist would be more accurate.
The Teachers Unions have omitted civics from public school expressly to dumb them down.. ON PURPOSE... And republicans have done nothing to stop this travesty.. for decades..
If these people ever studied a lick of true history, and not the revisionist crap they teach in gov schools, the number would be 100%!
The other 45% describe him as a Stalinist.
Why is there a question mark at the end of the title?
He defined himself when he told Joe the Plumber that he wanted to spread the wealth around.
Coming from Snakehead this can only mean one thing, that a Clinton Palace Coup is in the offing.
A man was in our office a little while ago talking about Obama. He said no way he’ll be elected to a second term. I said too bad he has to serve out this term and he laughed. He said he had expected more of him. Many people are opening their eyes and becoming very disillusioned with him.
True. I have attempted conversations with such people.
“Socialist is far too mild. Marxist would be more accurate.”
Savage has said Obama is a Marxist all along, he said months ago we are in a Marxist revolution. “He is an extremist, a Marxist...”

I was giving him the benefit of doubt until I heard about the church he belonged to for 20 years led by an anti-American screaming lunatic Wright, his associations with Farakhan, Frank Marshall Davis, Bill Ayers and a host of other radicals. And he made his socialist agenda clear.
And after all of that, the libs still voted him in.
2012 - payback time, can’t wait.
I wish they had asked whether the word “communist” fit Obama. I doubt they dared.
Michael Savage may sound like a raving lunatic at times, but when you check out what he says, I find him to be right about 99% of the time. Sort of like the John Birch Society.
We’re winning.
