Majority of voters believe the country is worse off today


Posted: Sep 5, 2012

Voters say second term for Obama is undeserved, country is worse off.

52% say nation is in "worse condition".

54% say he does not deserve reelection based solely on his job performance.

They also strongly suggest Democrats need to convince voters the election should be a choice between Obama and Republican nominee Mitt Romney, rather than a referendum on the president. -

I'm one of them--because of 30 years of greed and - irresponsbility. We reap our sowings. NM

a few days after the debates, watch them pull a Romney and do a stunning 180 in midstream. It's hard for political animals such as the ones who hang here on the forum to grasp the concept that for most voters, the conventions and debates are used to turn the page, from focus on blog-and-Twitter politics, to the nitty-gritty of one-one-one assessments made by viewers, poised to choose between platforms, presentations and direct contrasts between four candidates (VEEP vs VEEP and Dem vs GOP presidential candidates) taking their cases directly to a critical electorate looking for answers.

My question is where we'd be if we'd used our hammers - to rebuild instead of throwing and dodging them. N
