Swing States moving solidly anti-Obama

by Bryan K. Donnelly

The Zogby International poll conducted on the 17th has GREAT NEWS for real Americans!

From Zogby:

If President Obama runs his re-election campaign on the issues he discussed in his State of the Union Address, the outcome is not likely to be good for Democrats.

My newsletter, The O'Leary Report, in cooperation with ATI-News, recently commissioned a poll of 10,000 likely voters with Zogby International to determine what voters in each of three categories of states think on a wide range of issues.

For polling purposes, we divided all 10,000 voters into three camps: 1) Red states that did not vote for Obama in 2008 and are unlikely to do so in 2012; 2) Blue states that did not vote for McCain in 2008 and are unlikely to vote GOP in 2012; and 3) Battleground "Green" states that could go either way in 2012. The following 12Green states all saw significant changes brought about by statewide and congressional GOP victories and GOP wins in state legislatures as a result of the 2010 midterm elections: FL, IN, IA, MI, MO, NH, NM, NC, OH, PA, VA, and WI.

Absolue Stunner! Blue States want someone other than Obama

Continuing:

Voters in Blue states would prefer someone new over President Obama by a slim 3-point margin (48% to 45%). The President should easily be able to make-up this ground once his campaign gets into full swing.

In Red states, however, voters would prefer someone new by a sizeable 22-point margin (58% to 36%), a sizeable margin that the President is unlikely to overcome. In Green states, voters want someone new in the White House by a 13-point margin (54% to 41%), showing that Obama's quest for the critical middle-ground will be a severe uphill climb.

So, not only do majorities in most “battleground” states like my own Florida heavily disagree with Obama’s socialist policies, they’re likely to vote against HIM and his Democrat-socialist brethren in next year’s election. We are most likely to see a GOP White House, Senate, and House AND an end to Obamacare. Hurrah!

And three cheers for WI courageous governor Scott Walker! The same scene is about to be played out in FL, MI, OH, MO, TN, KY, PA and many other states. The libertarian/conservative tsunami is just beginning.
