Although results of a presidential election cannot be deduced by today’s poll results, trends can be an indicator. Just last week a Gallup poll showed approval of President Barack Obama’s handling of the U.S. economy had fallen to a new low of 26 percent. Another Gallup poll shows that Mitt Romney could win an election today against Obama 48% to 46%. Rick Perry would be in a tie and both Ron Paul and Michele Bachmann are closely trailing Obama.
Trends are telling and there is little to indicate that Obama has too much strength with “independents.” That is the group that will most likely determine who will be elected next November (2012).
Barack Obama is an outstanding speaker. He just has not shown the leadership skills that a president needs. If a Tea Party candidate wins the GOP nomination the Republican Party will have given the Democrats what they are hoping for. That would be an extremist.
