Ba bye all you Obama voters!

Obama voters are having a case of buyer’s remorse, according to a new USA Today/Suffolk University poll in six states with key Senate races this November.
The number of likely voters “who can remember voting” for President Obama has turned out to be lower than the actual number that did, USA Today reports. And of those who confessed to helping reelect the president in 2012, one in seven said they now regret their decision.
Of the six states in the polling, only Kansas featured as many likely voters who remembered voting Obama as those who actually did (at 38 percent apiece.)
In the other states, it broke down in the following manner.
Arkansas had 37 percent Obama voters during the 2012 election, but now only 35 percent actually admit to it. Colorado’s percentage point drop was even steeper, from 51 percent in 2012 to 46 percent today. Iowa matched this with a drop of 52 percent to 47 percent.
Michigan fell the most, going from 54 percent to 48 percent, and North Carolina dropped from 48 percent to 43 percent.
USA Today didn’t stop there. Of the individuals who admitted to voting for Obama but now regret it, they shared the following responses.
Lois Rice, 61, Colorado: “I voted for Obama, but quite frankly I’ve been disappointed with his handling of the ISIS (Islamic State) issue and just some general economic issues.”
Kristopher Lane, 21, Iowa: “I’m kind of upset that I did vote for him… I was kind of pushed towards voting for him by someone I know.” Lane also expressed concern that the Affordable Care Act (ACA), President Obama’s signature domestic policy achievement, has turned out worse than promised.
Charles Franklin of Marquette University Law School attempted to explain the results.
“Voters who defect from their party to vote for the winner are more likely to ‘forget’ this over time and to report a vote more consistent with their current party identification. Reports of past vote also correlate with current preferences.”
Clarence Page of the Chicago Tribune added that Obama voters may just be tired of seeing the President after six years.
“After six years in office, any president has been seen and heard too many times to satisfy the public’s relentless appetite for something fresh and new,” Page wrote.
What do you think, readers? First of all, if you were one of the Obama voters who ushered him into a second term, have you/do you regret your decision? And are these poll numbers a bad sign for Democrats in the battleground states next month?

They should be sent to Africa to “fight” Ebola.
And we shall name can name their new branch of service.
Somehow “regret” just doesn’t quite make up for it.
It’s like saying you regret shooting your mother. Once it’s done, it’s done.
The same dolts will vote for Hellary in 2016.

LOL, nice try at a save there, Clarence.
As for the Obama voters who are now experiencing buyer’s remorse...cry me a frickin’ river. I have NO sympathy here. Obama has been exactly what he promised he would be in every speech he gave as an Illinois State Senator, a U.S. Senator, and a candidate in the 2008 Democratic primaries. He put on a thin veneer of moderation for the general election, but only a FOOL would have ignored all that history.
I’ll save my sympathy for those of us who saw Obama for the woefully unprepared, hopelessly ideological politician he is, and have been paying the price for it since 2008.***
***People who stayed home instead of voting don’t get any sympathy, either.
If I were to be elected president, I would much rather have had the votes of the intelligent rather than the stupid. It would be embarrassing not to have too many smart people vote for me.
and those whod vote for em again if they had the opportunity,.....bed rest....and electro shock
Ba bye all you Obama voters!
Exactly! They have buyer’s remorse for Obola, but they’d vote for Hitlery in 2016.
As far as I am concerned, they can go to hell.
And he hasn’t even begun to unleash his fury on the U.S. Wait until after this election.
Yep, he’s going to go all out.
As far as I am concerned, they can go to hell.
The other day I told a stupid woman just that.
So, the LoInfos are going to vote for Slick Willie’s wife to make up for their Obama mistakes. Great.
You know...
Dead people and precincts where there were more votes than there were people... Any actual audit of votes will fail...
The Democrats know how to win "elections"...
They don’t need to go to h3ll. Their own a$$h0le Obama is creating h3ll for all of us.
The alternative is that they are all telling the truth and that the decrement is the # of fraudulent ballots cast.
What is so very sad....no matter the regret they will vote sh!t oops I mean dem liberals again or not vote maybe.
lol
They each thought they were winners when they voted for that fraud..
That is so transparent based on his actions in the middle-east.
They don’t need to go to h3ll. Their own a$$h0le Obama is creating h3ll for all of us.
I agree but they will never understand that. That’s probably the most frustrating and maddening thing about them.
