So Obama is well below 50% and only beats a GOP placeholder by 2.

An incumbent polling below 50% is bad news.

Maybe they're taking into account a 20% cheat factor from ACORN to give him a 2% margin.

They will regret the day they came up with “Hope and Change”. It’s already biting them in the a$$.

... Mitt Romney (R) leads the field among 490 GOPers ...That tells me a lot about the inaccuracy of this poll. Or do they mean that they listed 490 potential GOP candidates?

National elections are different animals though. It is one thing to vote against Congress and quite another to kick someone out of the WH. Face it, there are 40 plus % of the population that will vote D or R every time they vote.
On the whole, Palin might be popular with the automatic R voters but the 18-20% that are not loyal to the R party have concerns about her. I don’t think they can justify voting for BO though.
Will be interesting to watch

Don’t ask me, I just posted it. I’m lazy, too lazy to look it up. I’m guessing it means someone who studies “psep”.

Incumbent below 50% — dead duck, cooked goose, filleted fish .... not good to eat.

I believe that “anybody but” always polls better than a known quantity. Plug in the name of a Republican, and BHO would poll even better.

I think Obama has scared too many for this to be accurate. Wonder what the internals were.

Pray for more pain.
I'm hoping to hear the bleating of sheep
or should I say the squealing of pigs.
America needs to get her face rubbed in it.
I want more than failure, I want disaster.
The name Obama needs to be remembered for a thousand years,
synonymous with UTTER CATASTROPHE.
To: coaltrain
Really? I was hoping generic R would beat him. Darn
