Two-thirds of likely voters say President Obama has kept his 2008 campaign promise to change America — but it’s changed for the worse, according to a sizable majority.
A new poll for The Hill found 56 percent of likely voters believe Obama’s first term has transformed the nation in a negative way, compared to 35 percent who believe the country has changed for the better under his leadership.

But, if the poll is correct, how can there be any question of him losing in November?
Yet... nearly half the country wants him re-elected. Amazing.
I agree. It’s more like 76% worse and 11% better. The only group still in love with Obama is black women. I’m convinced that most black men dislike Obama for being a sissy on the downlow. However, if they want to keep peace with their wives, girlfriends and mommas, they gotta keep their mouths shut.
This is a very stupid country.
I actually have begun to pray for his physical safety. He is leading the Democrat Party towards the electoral cliff. He is too arrogant to stand down. The Clintons have a long history of Arkancides. I think the Dems are in full-blown panic and want him off the ticket and are willing to do ANYTHING to achieve it. Dangerous times.
35% of our people don’t pay attention. Look how many voted for him but won’t admit it today.
You're trying to appeal to logic. They're too stupid for that.
Oh yeah. I forgot.
I doubt the polls showing the candidates tied are an accurate reflection of what’s going to happen in November.
the question arises from the “bradley effect” folks in 2008 wanted to prove they are not racist now they won’t admit their future vote because they don’t want a stranger to think they are racist. This guy is 30 points down in direction, 20 points on the economy - and unemploy is 8% foru months from election - toast.
um... because the two ideas are not mutually exclusive...
you can believe that Obama has made things worse... and ALSO believe that Romney would do even worse than Obama.
Thanks for posting. It’s very frustrating seeing the destructive Obama ride relatively high in the polls based on support from his legions of government dependent drones. The drones simply want to stay on the gravy train and will vote for more government largesse. I think most productive and responsbible people are against him. Will there be enough of us left to eject him in November?
That’s my question. How can Gallup and others have him up? When you see these polls on the usurper’s job performance they’re universally awful.
This guy couldn’t beat Idi Amin.
“This is a very stupid country.”
The liberal “education” establishment and a corrupt media have largely accomplished their missions. Nothing short of severe economic hardship will awaken the masses.
Every candidate is guaranteed 40-43% of the vote...especially a Democrat with a compliant media. Obama is sitting right around 44-45%, which is just a tick above the minimum. He is sitting in the 44-47% range in most every swing state, which is not a good spot to be in for an incumbent. He is not winning.
Yup. Easily influenced by pop culture or other loathsome vehicles. And “stupid people” will usually vote for the Dem. While searching through TV channels the other night, I came across a David Letterman episode which was likely a repeat based on his Top Ten list. What was it? Something to do with the worst names for boys. I sensed it would include “Mitt” but that is what leads me to believe it was a repeat. “Rush” was mentioned but the list finisher was “Newt.” Letterman, of course, doesn’t have the stones to put “Barack.”
