But when you put a Republican name into the equation, the numbers change -- in favor of Obama. The president leads former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney 47 to 40 percent. Sen. John Thune of South Dakota trails by 20 points, 47 to 27 percent.
In fairness to the Republicans, voters are a long way from Election Day 2012, and GOP unannounced potential challengers such as Thune are handicapped in mock head-to-head match-ups because their names are much less known than the president's. But name identification is hardly Sarah Palin's problem -- and the president leads the former Alaska governor, 55 to 33 percent.
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows that 24% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as president. Forty-one percent (41%) Strongly Disapprove, giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -17 (see trends).

Why all the gloom and doom threads lately?

Sarah Palin is the hands down frontrunner for the republican party nomination. She is expressing interest and giving the signs that she is preparing for the run.
She will get the nomination...however, if she doesn't this is from republican/GOP wrongdoing to sabotage. It will be blatant and will demoralize the party..causing write in votes or a potential 3 party running between tea party palin, whomever the GOP puts forward (Romney), and Obama.
Palin is currently enjoying a 22 point spread from Obama...to the negative

So...if she runs, it will be a landslide...if she doesn't run, she will become a write in and fraction the right wing's voting power.
Obama will win in either senario. That is my prediction.
This is not divine knowledge, nor did the galactic federation of light tell me this...its simple numbers to basically state the obvious.

I will make this short and sweet.
It will not matter who get to be president in 2012. The system will continue to spin out of control. Its all the same BS during election races, promises to the people then 2 years in its all the same. Just look at the illegal universal health care coming, taxation without representation forcing the people to buy health insurance, whats next a law demanding us to get nudered and spaded to control population? Or forced vaccinations with tracking chips in them or whatever? I know I should stop here before I start sounding like one of them, but it will not matter if obama, or Whoever wins the nomination they are not the boss, the system is.
