A new poll spotlighting the faith community's outlook on the 2012 campaign shows that evangelicals have high views of Mike Huckabee and Sarah Palin, less-than-enthusiastic views of Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney, and low views of President Obama.
SNIP
Among evangelicals, Huckabee's ratings (88 percent favorable, 11 percent unfavorable) led those of Palin (79 percent favorable, 21 percent unfavorable), Gingrich (57 percent/37 percent), Romney (56 percent/29 percent and Ron Paul (51 percent/26 percent). Obama, though, is viewed favorably by only 6 percent of evangelicals. Ninety-four percent view him unfavorably.
The Barna survey was based on interviews with 1,021 adults nationwide Feb. 10-18.

I would darn well hope they have a negative view of Obama.
How could anyone call themselves a Christian, never mind an evangelical Christian, and feel anything other than contempt for this sad excuse for a human being?
I don’t think there is a single politician (or even a person) is is more pro-abortion than he is. It seems sacrilegious to hear scripture come out of his mouth. He sat in that hideous excuse for a “church” for years. If he isn’t simply an atheist, he’s a Marxist.
I am surprised the number is not higher.
I don't like Huck either, but I have three words that make all the difference:
Supreme Court Nominees.
I went back to one, and just got the words “So how do you like Obama” out, and she said, “He’s horrible! Horrible! Who knew the change he was talking about was this!”
I of course could not resist saying, “I knew, and I tried to tell you ...”
Bingo. It’s 94% unfavorable in the latest poll. What was it two years ago? 90%?
No true Christian would vote for a liberal candidate knowing what they support.
Big whoop. I don't f'n care. This is why I say that.
KELO vs New London -- 7 of the 9 justices that sat on the bench at the time were appointed by Republicans. So don't you tell me that voting Republican makes a difference on the Supreme Court.
SCOTUS will never be perfect, but a young, liberal majority will kill this nation within five years.
Yeah, you're right. Next time it may be the 2nd amendment -- and suppose I vote Republican and suppose the justices say: "2nd amendment doesn't exist in this century" and suppose 6/9 were appointed by Republicans. What then? Do I get to recall? Hell no!
I have said the same thing for as many years as I have
been a Christian. The Lord opened my eyes.
They tell me I’m sharp as a marble.
I remember reading at the time , that he had gotten a large portion of the evangelical vote . I was shocked .
Every time I say to my son, I don’t know about this RINO or another one, he says to me, “Well, will he run around BOWING to the Muslims?”
What percentage supported him in 2008?
If McCain won, we would have had health care lite - almost as bad but without the uproar and the threat of repeal or defunding.
If McCain won, the 2010 elections would likely have been much different.
If McCain won, we would probably have immigration reform by now.
The problem with electing RINOs is the media will portray the political middle as halfway between the RINO and Pelosi. I know the presidency is powerful, but if we elect a liberal Republican the republicans in the house and senate will follow him. (See the Bush-Kennedy education plan and the Medicare presciption drug plan for examples. And Bush was to the right of McCain on many issues.)
I guess the search engine did not pick up on the original.
