Poll: Americans, 2-1, Fear Obama's Reelection
January 9, 2012
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. Instead,
according to the new Washington Whispers poll, many voters aren't forgetting
what they dislike about Obama and want him out of office.
In our New Year's poll, when asked what news event they fear most about 2012
, Americans by a margin of two-to-one said Obama's reelection. Only 16
percent said they fear the Democrat won't win a second term, while 33
percent said they fear four more years. [Check out the top political events

Next to Obama's reelection, 31 percent of Americans said they feared higher
taxes, which may be proof that the president's focus on the payroll tax cut
has hit paydirt.
The poll, however, held out some hope for Obama. Some 38 percent of younger
Americans, 18-24, said their biggest fear was higher taxes. Just 28 percent
of those same voters said they feared Obama winning in November. [See

But in results backed up by other polls, older Americans and those earning $
75,000 or more are especially worried about the president getting a second
term, according to the poll done by Synovate eNation.
Nearly half of Americans 65 and older said Obama's reelection was their top
fear, 39 percent of those making $75,000 or more agreed.
As we enter the presidential election year of 2012, what potential news
event do you fear the most?
President Obama wins reelection 33%
Taxes will increase 31%
Iran will get a nuclear weapon 16%
Obama will lose reelection 16%
North Korea will attack South Korea 4%
