Damn Racists. Clearly they don't know Obama is an inexperienced community
organizer who has only presided over higher unemployment for three and a
half years.

- With President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney
delivering dueling visions for the U.S. economy in speeches on Thursday, a
majority of independents said that Obama's policies have made it harder for
Americans to gain employment, a Reuters/Ipsos poll showed on Friday.
Fifty-two percent of independents said they agreed with the idea that the
president has not helped create more jobs in America, an argument central
to Romney's campaign.
Obama appears to have trouble convincing some members of his own party that
his administration has been good for jobs: 29 percent of Democrats said
they agreed with the claim that he has not been a job creator.
With the unemployment rate at 8.1 percent, the Obama campaign maintains
that 4.2 million private-sector jobs have been created since he entered
office in January 2009, although roughly as many have been lost.
"I think the thing that Obama's team is going to be worried about is the
number of independents who agree that the policies the president has put in
place make it harder to create jobs," said Ipsos pollster Chris Jackson.
"The key conversation is convincing them that the things he has done have
helped the economy or not certainly made things worse."
Romney, a former Massachusetts governor, argues that the Obama
administration's healthcare reform has been bad for the economy, a view
that now resonates with a majority of people.
Among registered voters, 57 percent said that they believe the healthcare
overhaul has damaged the economy while 43 percent said the 2010 legislation
has been good for the economy.
