Americans fear the reelection of President Barack Obama by a 2-1 margin, according to a recent US News survey, a result that shows the competitive nature of the race that's building even before a Republican nominee has been named.
"When it comes to how Americans view President Obama going into the new year, there appears to be very little spirit of Auld Lang Syne," said a Washington Whispers column by Paul Bedard Monday. "Instead, according to the new Washington Whispers poll, many voters aren't forgetting what they dislike about Obama and want him out office."
The magazine, in its New Year's poll, asked respondents what they feared most in 2012. By a 2-to-1 margin, Americans said Obama's reelection in November.
In all, just 16 percent said they fear Obama won't win a second term, while 33 percent said they worry that he will.

The number one fear is that Obama will be reelected and the number two fear is higher taxes.
Like there's a difference.
The press can never seem to connect that Mayan 2012 Prophecy with the election – I wonder why?
We’ve got a worldwide economy that is teetering on the brink of collapse – all thanks to Socialism in the Nations where it’s most prevalent.
This is actually great news. I have always voted Republican my adult life but now consider myself an independent. The Republican party left me, I didn't leave it.
All the Dems and Repubs now are big Government, crony Capitalists, big spending, elitists.
If Romney wins I would prefer Obama win and not be able to get legislation passed than have Romney get in and be able (with Dem and Repub support) to pass more Big Government, big spending, more wars, Gov healthcare, etc...

Ah! Thanks for enlightening us, sir. So it IS the food stamp mooches afterall causing the worldwide economy to fall? See, and here I was thinking it was one sided trade agreements, deindustrilaization, inflation, war, etc. Man, I am so glad you are here to educate us all!
We have the best politicians money can buy. And they're all bought and paid for. Too bad we couldn't afford any for ourselves.

You'd prefer Obama re-elected and "not be able to get legislation passed"? Are you sure?
In case you hadn't noticed, Obama has demonstrated that he will do whatever he wants. He knows that Congress lacks the intestinal fortitude to do anything about it.
if the main issue in this election is spending, then fire Congress: it's the House of (mis-)Representatives that control the pursestrings - or at least, are supposed to, according to the Constitution (a document that served us well for over 200 years but which our elected representatives have recently decided not to use any more). And by Congress, I mean the whole stinking lot - Democrat, Republican, whatever - makes no difference.
I'll drink to that 5:29!
