Poll finds Obama losing ground to Republicans

WASHINGTON -- Look out President Barack Obama. Even Sarah Palin's gaining on you.
A new McClatchy-Marist poll finds that Obama looks increasingly vulnerable in next year's election, with a majority of voters believing he'll lose to any Republican, a solid plurality saying they'll definitely vote against him and most potential Republican challengers gaining on him.


Even in potential matchups where he leads, Obama in most cases has lost ground to the Republican.
The biggest gain came for Palin, the former Alaska governor who hasn't yet announced whether she'll jump into the fast-changing race for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination.

After trailing Obama by more than 20 percentage points in polls all year, the new national survey, taken Sept. 13-14, found Palin trailing the president by just 5 points, 49-44 percent. The key reason: She now leads Obama among independents, a sharp turnaround.

That's been my wife's motto for a long time. ALMOST ABO (Anyone but Obama).

Actually I'd be more comfortable with her than either Romney or Perry, if the polls turn in her favor to support her viability in the general election.

So would I. She has been the only one to consistently stand by conservative principles and has no flip-flops to explain, and no big black marks against her policy-wise.

Regarding Perry, my stepson (who lives in Austin, TX) says it's an open secret that Perry packs fudge.

I haven't checked into that at all, mostly because I think Perry is a flash-in-the-pan. His dismal performance in the most recent debate tells me he ain't got what it takes.
