52 percent of Americans said President Barack Obama doesn't deserve
reelection in 2012, according to a new poll.
44 percent of all Americans said they would vote to reelect the president in
two and a half years, less than the slight majority who said they would
prefer to elect someone else.
Obama faces a 44-52 deficit among both all Americans and registered voters,
according to a CNN/Opinion Research poll released Tuesday. Four percent had
no opinion.
The reelection numbers are slightly more sour than Obama's approval ratings,
which are basically tied. 49 percent of people told CNN that they approve of
the way Obama is handling his job, while 50 percent disapprove.
Still, the 2012 election is still a long way's away, with this fall's
midterm elections looming large. Republicans are hoping to make inroads into
Congress, while Democrats are hoping to hold onto gains won in the 2006 and
2008 cycles.
Respondents to CNN were split at 46 percent as to whether they preferred a
generic Republican or Democratic candidate in this fall's elections.
At least one retiring lawmaker is confident Obama will sail to reelection,
with Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) predicting Monday the president would win
"overwhelmingly" in 2012.
The CNN poll, conducted Feb. 12-15, has a three percent margin of error.
