Which makes Reagan's percentage more impressive than Obama's. What, bloggers can't do simple math? Idiots. Obama had higher ‘popular vote’ numbers because there are more registered voters.

Numbers can be manipulated and become skewed. Expert or not. Independant or Moderate. Opinions are never as unbiased as a person wants you to believe. Deep inside, there is always a lean. The question of which way is souly the discretion of the expert providing the intel...in other words, O' has not been in office long enough to use a temp guage yet. But the direction we are going is poor and will bring the country to its knees. Reagan Pointed a gazillion missles at Russia his first day in office, and asked the premier "still think I am bluffing?" O' signs and executive order making the US a supporter of murder around the world supporting abortion, and gives the bad guys a green light to conduct business as usual.

One just has to open one's eyes to the fact that, after the last 8 years, the Republican Party is no longer the party of the right (or center-right either).

This looks like a pick-your-poison scenario for the GOP: give Obama the same "medicine" the Dems used to give Bush, and put off moderate voters who backed Obama (and even some who didn't) last November; or work with him and put off the base.
