QOTW #3: Obama

Obama faces a precarious reelection effort next November. His approval ratings have steadily dropped from the beginning of his term, and he is now at a mediocre 42%, with 51% of the American populace disapproving of his job in office. To be assured reelection, he must push through major legislation dealing with the economy. As it is, he still holds a lead over all Republican candidates, but as the Republican party gradually unites behind a single candidate, this could change. Still, he holds broad support and can mobilize a large and devoted base. I give 2:1 odds of reelection.
