Barack Obama
According to the latest polls, all the main Republican candidates for the job of President of the United States in the 2012 election, are soundly and consistently beating incumbent, Barack Obama in the polls. This does not bode well for President Obama, as it reveals public sentiment and support are not with him.
What's brow-raising about Obama tuning out the polls and stating they do not matter (through his spokesman) is the president is not making the connection, regarding what this means at the ballot box in 2012, on its current trajectory. It is the equivalent of shunning public opinion, in essence, a referendum on one's job performance as head of state, which is unwise.
You should listen to the people, as they are not happy with what you are doing in office and you need to change. To do otherwise is not conducive to success. If you are going to state people's opinions on your job performance is not important, you may as well not run in the election at all and let another Democrat have a go at it.
