A significant majority of voters are considering voting against Barack Obama in the 2012 election

Only 38% say that Obama deserves to be reelected, even though a majority of voters hold a favorable view of him on a personal level. Forty-four percent said they will vote to oust him, and 13% said they will consider voting for someone else. It’s Obama’s policies that are hurting him right now. By a 13-point margin, voters are down on the health care law. In an especially troubling sign, more than half of self-identified independents - 54% - have an unfavorable opinion of the law, compared with just 38% who have a favorable opinion. And by an 11-point margin, voters trust congressional Republicans to create jobs more than Obama.
