The Race From Here

Everything you need to know about Pew Research's pretty detailed 2012 poll comes from these two charts, first the party/demographic breakdown chart of President Obama's approval ratings:


aug-9

Whites and people 50 and older really, really do not like President Obama, at about the same rate, mid 30's for, mid 50's against.   But a funny thing happens when you ask them to actually choose a Republican to vote for:


aug-20

Mitt Romney has the smallest albatross around his neck with 42% of voters saying they'd never vote for the guy. The rest of the Republican field is basically completely unelectable. The best Rick Perry could hope for is 50% of the vote and change.

So no, right now I'm still not worried about President Obama losing.
