It will make no difference come November. The Republicans have a habit be it national, state or local to nominate the most far right people they can find.

I have heard Romney on interviews and debates. He must have inherited his money because he doesnt seem all that bright. Santorum too far right on social issues. Gingrich, please dont get me started. Paul I dont think so.

Had they put a person that was far right on economic issues but hands off on abortion and social issues they would win in November.

FOX News. LMAO!

Washington (CNN) - President Barack Obama's approval rating is back to 50% for the first time in more than eight months, and he currently holds an edge against all the remaining Republican presidential candidates in hypothetical head-to-head match-ups, according to a new national survey.

And a CNN/ORC International Poll released Wednesday also indicates that the GOP's advantage on enthusiasm has been erased, and that the number of Americans who think things are going well in the country is on the rise. Six out of ten say things are going poorly in the country, but four out of ten say things are going well, up 15 points since November.

This is what appears on Gallup's website. I do not believe that the link above is accurate.

Rasmussen has Obama winning re-election and approval rating at 48%

In a potential Election 2012 matchup, the president posts a 48% to 42% lead over former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney. If former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum is the Republican nominee, the president leads 47% to 41%. Matchup results are updated daily at 9:30 a.m. Eastern (sign up for free daily e-mail update). See tracking history for all candidates.

In his weekly syndicated column, Scott Rasmussen shows how polling data suggests Santorum may be more of a challenge for Romney than earlier "flavors of the month" like Newt Gingrich and Herman Cain. Santorum leads Romney 42% to 24% in Ohio and by three in Michigan. On a national basis, it’s Santorum 39%, Romney 27% with Newt Gingrich and Ron Paul far behind.

Rasmussen Reports will release new data on the Arizona primary at 10:00 a.m. Eastern.

The Presidential Approval Index is calculated by subtracting the number who Strongly Disapprove from the number who Strongly Approve.

Overall, 48% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the president's job performance. Fifty-one percent (51%) at least somewhat disapprove.

Who cares? I mean really, who do they poll? I know black people don't respond to polling, nor young people in general, or really even middle age people. Leaving...old white people...in their teens and 20's during the Civil Rights movement..with this the case, Obama's doing well, can't forget to subtract 10 percent from disapprove cuz that's about the number who will always disagree since he's half-black.

The polls survey via phone calls with something like 15% going to cell phones. I personally think they're thus somewhat biased to "old white people", too.

I regularly get polling calls on my landline and never respond...guess I should to bias the result, huh?

Why would you even bother mentioning Fox (, OP)? Should've just linked directly to the Gallup poll...
