52 percent of Americans said President Barack Obama doesn't deserve reelection in 2012, according to a new poll.


44 percent of all Americans said they would vote to reelect the president in two and a half years, less than the slight majority who said they would prefer to elect someone else.

Obama faces a 44-52 deficit among both all Americans and registered voters, according to a CNN/Opinion Research poll released Tuesday. Four percent had no opinion.

DeMint Slams Gore and "Warming" Hitting DC

DeMint Slams Gore and 'Warming' Hitting D.C.

Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., is using the snowstorm hitting Washington D.C. as an opportunity to make some points about former Vice President Al Gore and climate change.

The conservative senator took to Twitter on Tuesday amid reports that the area is due to receive another 10 to 20 inches of snow this week, according to The Hill.

DeMint tweeted: “It's going to keep snowing in DC until Al Gore cries ‘uncle.’”

Other conservatives have echoed DeMint's sentiments that the snowstorm should poke holes in evidence backing global warming.

The South Carolina senator was not the first Republican to use the snowstorm to make a political point, according to The Hill. Rep. Lynn Jenkins, R-Kansas, said that absence of votes in the House is a plus for taxpayers.

The end of health care as Obama knows it

The end of health care as Obama know it

With the win by now U.S. Senator-elect Scott Brown in the hottest political senate race in decades, the end of health care as we know it is near. U.S. Sen. Jim Webb, D-VA, put the Obama Administration and his Democrat colleagues on notice, saying:

"In many ways the campaign in Massachusetts became a referendum not only on health care reform but also on the openness and integrity of our government process. It is vital that we restore the respect of the American people in our system of government and in our leaders. To that end, I believe it would only be fair and prudent that we suspend further votes on health care legislation until Senator-elect Brown is seated."

The secretive Democratic leadership meetings are also put on notice, as well as Obama's Chicago-style bullying and buying of senators. Care to make a wager?
