Interesting.... :)
A new poll (http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2011/images/08/29/130.poll.pdf) by CNN and ORC International finds that 27 percent of Democrats would like to see their party nominate a candidate other than Barack Obama for president in 2012.
In response to the question, "Do you think the Democratic party should renominate Barack Obama as the party's candidate for president in 2012, or do you think the Democratic party should nominate a different candidate for president in 2012?" -- 72 percent said they wanted to see Obama renominated. But 27 percent, slightly more than one in every four, said they wanted to see Democrats nominate a different candidate.
The new poll is another indication of Democratic unhappiness with the president, but it does not mean Obama will face a challenge in his party's primaries. Despite the complaints of a few liberals like Sen. Bernard Sanders, the odds of a Democrat opposing the president appear to be something less than zero. But the new poll is still a matter of concern to Democrats, because it is yet another indication that there is significant disillusionment with the president within his own party. Whether those disaffected Democrats will come around to supporting Obama next year is an open question -- and perhaps the most worrying of the president's re-election bid.

There is no Democrat that would oppose Obama and old Bernie who likes Obama and is far to smart to pull something that stupid.
But tell me one thing Hawk 66% of the Republicans don't like the present Republican/Tea Party candidates. So tell why any Democrat would give up on voting for Obama and vote for some stupid and moronic Republican/Teabagger. Huh? :wink:
He'll get the nomination. You should concentrate on your own party of closet cock-suckers.
