    So Huntsman has no shot, but a guy who's not in the race does? Seriously?

    No, he bailed them out... Why must you take things so literally? You know what I meant, he had most of the black vote last time around. And I never used the word "own" -- you did.

    On the assumption that Huntsman won't be around, Obama.

    Well, I'm a Canadian so I don't get to vote, but it'd be Obama in a heart beat.

    GOP candidates like Perry, Bachmann and Palin represent the clown fringe.

    This is one of those threads that is meant to prove the media's liberal bias (see poll result).

    Heck, I would vote for the Exhumed Corpse of Andrew Johnson over the incumbent in a heartbeat.

    Meh. If you add up all of the GOP candidates, it's Obama 36-30. Seems about right.

    Yeah, there was sarcasm in my post ya know.

    But I'll nitpick your post. Everybody had a chance to vote for their favorite guy so there is no chance that somebody voted for Obama instead of any other candidate on the list. However, there is a chance that some of those who voted for somebody else in the field would vote for Obama over others in the field besides there own candidate.

    So in any head-to-head, you'd expect Obama's edge in this poll to be greater than 36-30.

    POTUS. the rest seem like too much crazy for me. I would support a moderate Republican, but those are about as plentiful as dinosaurs now.
