Voters in the key swing state of Pennsylvania have some troubling news for President Obama: A majority say he doesn't deserve another four years in the White House.
According to a Quinnipiac University poll released Tuesday, 52 percent of registered Pennsylvania voters say the president does not deserve a second term while 42 percent support his re-election.
The president’s job approval ratings are also underwater in the Keystone State, 43 percent to 54 percent. The majority of independent voters disapprove of the job Obama is doing, 56 percent to 40 percent. By a nine-point margin, 51 percent of this important voting bloc don’t think the president deserves re-election.

This is an encouraging development. If Obama loses Pennsylvania, it’s over for him.
Seems like Obama is in Pennsylvania every other week.
Presidential jockstrap falls out of suitcase unnoticed on the way to the airport. News at 11.
I haven’t seen any polls for Michigan but I doubt he’s doing much better here. The liberals even failed to get the Snyder recall on the November ballot by a wide margin. They needed 800,000 signatures and only got some 300,000.
Obama needs to get up close to 50% job approval or he will lose (barring a third party pulling votes from the GOP).
If I am a Democrat, this poll makes me sick with worry.
At this point, he’s losing support in Hell.
AMAZING ANYBODY SUPPORTS THE TRAITOR...
That's a very good thing, since the dead are the voters he is counting on to give him the win.
A friend of mine lives in Allentown, she says Pa hates Obama. Unemployment in Pa is rampant and guess where everyone lays the blame...and no, it’s not Bush.
Keep in mind that a) this is Quinnipiac which are Clinton’s pollsters so either Dems are oversampled or, possibly in this case, undersampled to try to encourage a Democrat challenger to Obama. And b) this is “registered voters”, not “likely voters”, which tells us they were already trying to help Obama’s chances since RV polls tend to lean more left than LV polls, particularly when LVs are upset at the current party in power.
I will support a death row convict over obama if given the choice.
But this was known in 2008. Perhaps it's better known now.
LET’S ROLL Pennsters!
Obama will not run. He will pull a LBJ and get out with all the stolen cash he can carry. I wouldnt be shocked if the SOB gets the hell out of the country.
Or if Obama loses in MI, he can't get to 270 electoral votes.
Or if Obama loses in WI, he can't get to 270 electoral votes.
Or if Obama loses in MN, he can't get to 270 electoral votes.
Or if Obama loses in IA, he can't get to 270 electoral votes.
Or if Obama loses in NV, he can't get to 270 electoral votes.
Or if Obama loses in CO, he can't get to 270 electoral votes.
Or if Obama loses in NM, he can't get to 270 electoral votes.
Heck, I'd posit that if Obama loses in NH, with its 4 electoral votes, he can't get to 2070 electoral votes.
In 2012, Obama will not carry IN or NC or VA or OH or FL, nor the Omaha CD that gave him one of NE’s electoral votes last time, nor any of the states that voted for McCain. Throw in the reapportionment of electoral votes following the 2010 Census, and Obama has to carry EVERY SINGLE REMAINING STATE in order to get to 270 electoral votes and win reelection. Given Obama’s precarious position in PA, MI, WI, NH and several other states, for him to win would be the equivalent of drawing an inside straight. Irrespective of how bad the GOP’s presidential field may seem to be, whoever wins the nomination will have an excellent chance of winning not only 270 electoral votes, but perhaps 350 electoral votes, if he or she can unite conservatives.
Thing is, we need to hang Bam around the democrats necks. I see a lot of anti-Bam bumper stickers; more every day. What I don’t see are anti-democrat stickers.
Prior to the election the airwaves were packed with commercials about how Bam wanted to wreck the coal industry (even using his very own words). Dumb asses here in PA still voted for him.
